Large reflective silver orb follows alongside 737 type plane, directly overhead at midday. Stops, hovers, and speeds away later.
We witnessed a very bright reflective white/silver orb, flying very high, following alongside a big 4 engine 737 type plane. It was directly overhead and it was a very clear sunny day. It appeared to be about 1/4 of the plane's size. The plane had very strong contrails and the weather was warm, so it was at least flying at probably 20,000 feet.
My attention was first drawn to the jet because of the thick contrails. It was directly overhead as I laid down on the grass in the park to relax a cramp in my back that I have been suffering after poor home office ergonomics (Covid 19 lock down).
The UFO was following southbound about 5 plane lengths, dashing through the contrails, in and out for about 15 seconds (from the point I laid down and noticed it). Then it went out along side the plane and followed it for about another 15-20 seconds, and then it just completely stopped (now about 20-30° away from the zenith). It up stayed in place for about a minute before a small dense cumulus cloud passed between view. (Confirming it is at least 10,000 feet and likely higher, since it was in the contrails before). 2-3 minutes later when it passed, it was still there.
It stayed there for about 10 minutes, not moving. The plane now was long gone. I pointed it out to another man in the park and we watched it together. Suddenly, it accelerated towards the north-east extremely fast, at least 3-4 times the speed the plane was going earlier, instantaneously! In maybe 5 seconds it was out of sight. I had chills and tears, and still do writing this now. It was clearly an object at a high altitude, performing very unusual and quite impossible flight maneuvers.
Afterwards, I scoured social media and newspapers for any other sightings but didn't find any to my surprise because it was so obvious to me. But then again, not too many people are staring straight up, sky watching in the middle of the day. I thank my back problems for my experience.
I am 32, married with two children. I am a social scientist by day, weather and astronomy enthusiast by night. I have never seen any UFOs before, although I have spent far more time watching the sky than most people, for other reasons. Therefore, I am quite confident that this was a very special once in a lifetime experience.
