It'd be in front of an object 100 light years away for an absurdly tiny amount of time. The percentage of the sky occluded by these satellites is absolutely minuscule. This is not a rational notion.
These are not geosynchronous satellites, but instead are 200-500 miles above the Earth, moving many, many thousands of mph. No, it isn't blocking anything 100 light years away unless your shutter speed is in the single-digit nanoseconds.
