Probably a CubeSat — a small cube-shaped research satellite. NASA has put several into orbit over the years and there are probably many more up there by now.

These are encountered in a training area where pilots fly daily. Pilots have been complaining that if something isn't done about them, there's going to be a collision.

They aren't satellites.

Then, I guess, the real story is that our jets can fly around in low earth orbit.

Earth-orbiting satellites at 35,000 feet? No.

yes,... a CubeSat satellite was not out in space, it was flying between two aircraft...
