A dark object blocking out stars, with one dim light. Chasing a jetliner across the sky from south to north

I was outside looking at the stars. I saw jets flying over. One jet heading due north. Directly behind it was a very dim light. I would say 2 or 3 miles trailing the jet. If I held both arms up. It was about the distance between my hands. Usually I would right off lights in the sky as satalites or space foder. But This paced the jet perfectly in speed. What ever it was , It was able to block out stars. So it was definately larger than the light that was affixed to the object. I went inside for a while and returned an hour later. I saw another jet fly over. The jet got directly over head and then a streak of light shot in front of it. The jet made no course correction. So, This object was apparently above its position. Or just out or Visual range of the pilots. This jet was also heading north. I will watch the stars tonight. I believe activity is going to increase.
