Oval over In flight between Tampa and Newark, -

The report, as filed

I was a passenger on JetBlue flight 574 seat 7A when I was looking out the window and saw a tic tac shaped white object that crossed over what appeared to be several hundred feet above the plane headed in a western direction. The object had a plume/exhaust coming out the end of it and was moving rapidly with no observable wings or markings. I was startled as to the proximity of it that something could be passing over so closely (we were at just under 39,000 feet about 90-120 min i into the flight). I’ve been sitting with this for the last 3 weeks trying to come to terms with it - I was in denial looking for answers. I regret not mentioning this to pilots when we landed- thought about reaching out to JetBlue now but landed here instead after researching best way to report this. Would have thought anti-collision warning would have gone off inside cockpit. I am an accountant and live in New York City, 52 years old and fit of mind and body. Father of 18 year old.
