slow moving object is joined in pursuit by another object, a plane of sorts, with a blinking light and then the solid light leaves.

Soon after my birthday, my mom and her friend went to Mexico, leaving me home for a week by myself. as I often have knee troubles I decided to soak in our hottub outside. my girlfriend walked inside to get us something to drink and my cigarettes, and I leaned back and say a steady light. at first I thought it was a plane since it had a light on it, but then I noticed it wasn't blinking. I watched it go from almost directly overhead to about a 65 degree angle at low speeds. (assuming 90degrees is straight up.). However the oddest part was the accompaniment of a aircraft that had a blinking light that caught up to it. as the second aircraft caught up, on this clear night I watched the solid light object go from 60degrees to around 45 degrees at a much higher speed than the blinking light could. it left it behind and they never caught back up to eachother. my only problem is I didn't know till recently that only military aircraft in a wartime zone could change their lights to off or not blinking otherwise it was mandatory to have signal lights. the light was a solid white orb. not very big, but was about 2x the size of the blinking aircrafts lights. I couldn't tell if the object made a sound or not seeing how the other aircraft did. but I know it didn't change color didn't blink just kept moving slowly then quickly.
