Is this a video of the moon "rising" or a SpaceX launch?

Ok, I had a little fun with the title. My reason for posting was that the rocket launch looked like a round ball of light versus what I can see with the naked eye of a straight flame.

What can I do to make the moon disappear (i.e., the ball of light) and get a proper video of a rocket launch.

Note that I used a Air 2S and the video settings where Auto, 4K 60 fps.
 
The auto exposure use the whole frame and average the exposure settings... & due to that nearly all is black in the frame the auto setting will rise the ISO & lower the shutter speed and this makes that tiny rocket launch severely over exposed.

In order to prioritize the exposure on that small part of the frame with the rocket you need to use manual settings.
