I've been in contact with the Themis team, and they say it is not Themis, but: "This may have been the reentry of the second stage."
Now, I know what a re-entry looks like, and this isn't one!
Its a rocket burn (maybe 800-1000km?) above the Earth, and judging by the number of small objects expanding away from the burning rocket in the middle, things may not have gone too well.
If it isn't Themis, it may be a military mission of some sort, or some other space mission that hasn't been in the media.
cheers, Gordon
