Several lights disseminating in a line from a larger light

I was driving north on highway 550 just past Counsler NM and noticed what I thought to be 5 stars in a perfect line. As I stared trying to figure out the constellation the 5 stars appeared to be moving. I pulled over and confirmed they where moving. I started to count them and noticed it wasn’t just 5 stars/ lights it was several and they were all moving at a similar speed, in a perfect line upward. I watched the first light in line to see where it went and it eventually disappeared. Then the next and the next. I traced the line of lights back down and noticed they where coming from a larger light that remained still in the sky. I must have seen about 30 small lights depart from the big one. I was able to compare these lights with a few airplanes flying near by and they were noticeable different then the airplanes. Eventually the dissemination of small lights form the large light discontinued. I continued driving but kept an eye on the large light. I n! ever saw anymore smaller lights disseminate from it or saw any change in activity from the larger light. It just stayed still in the sky.
