UFO hunters claim to have spotted yet another unidentified object passing close to the International Space Station.

The footage, posted on YouTube by SecureTeam10, appears to show a streak of light captured by the cameras on-board the ISS.

Hundreds have commented on the video, offering their thoughts on what the object could be.

UFO hunters claim to have spotted yet another unidentified object passing close to the International Space Station. The footage, posted on YouTube by SecureTeam10 , appears to show a streak of light captured by the cameras on-board the ISS (pictured to the right of the silver module)

According to the video's narrator, SecureTeam received the footage via email from someone who was combing through hours of recordings of ISS live streams.

'This amazing footage of the ISS...has got me very excited,' said Tyler from SecureTeam.

It shows a streak of light passing behind the International Space Station when the orbiting base is in the shadow of the Earth.

The burst of light appears in the background for just a few seconds, changing colour from white to red before disappearing.

'When you look at this thing up close, it comes directly up out of nowhere, out of the darkness of space,' explains the video's narrator.

He proclaims: 'It can't be a fireball, 'cos there's no air in space - hence there can't be any fire,' before adding: 'My mind is just blown. What is this thing?'.


The footage comes from a recorded stream of the ISS captured on Tuesday, and can be seen by fast forwarding to 15:25 of the recorded stream.

The consensus among YouTubers is a meteor or space debris - such as a discarded stage of a rocket launch - burning up as it enters Earth's atmosphere.

More grandiose claims reported recently by UFO hunters include evidence of secret 'missile launcher' aboard the space station.

The images captured from Nasa's live feed sent conspiracy theorists into a frenzy, claiming it shows an 'interesting UFO or missile' being released from the ISS.

However, the footage coincided with the planned release of a number of cube satellites from the station.

In possibly the most bizarre claim, UFO-hunters said they had found evidence of a trail left behind during the departure of time-travelling aliens.

A flash of light, supposedly captured by Nasa during a live stream from the International Space Station, was claimed to be hundreds of miles wide.

In two bizarre explanations, conspiracy theorists proposed that the 'energy beam' had come from a UFO leaving the ocean, or that it may have been a wormhole used to transport aliens through time.

In the footage, the round object can be seen just to the left of centre. It stays in one position for a short time before ascending upward and off-screen.

The phenomenon was first spotted by Nicholas D'Amario, who reported it to UFO spotting site MUFON.

It was then picked up by outspoken alien hunter Scott C. Waring of UFO Sightings Daily earlier this week.

He also points out the subsequent energy beam that 'shot up from the Earth toward the UFO's former location.'

'Also a UFO is seen, but its to [sic] small to be the earth, may possibly be Jupiter, since its [sic] very visible in the night sky right now.'

'Hard call. That light however...its [sic] thickness its [sic] incredible. Covering a width of hundreds of miles. It must have come from the ocean, and left so fast it left a visible trail for a few seconds,' Waring continues.

'Then...it could have been a wormhole, a long tunnel to transport someone or something a far distance. We see the tunnel made then disappear. Nothing to worry about, just time traveling aliens.'

Sightings of this kind are not uncommon, and Nasa has spoken out in the past to explain that the 'UFOs' and other phenomena spotted in the ISS footage often have simple explanations.

Earlier this month, a Nasa spokesperson told MailOnline: 'Reflections from station windows, the spacecraft structure itself or lights from Earth commonly appear as artefacts in photos and videos from the orbiting laboratory.'

A mysterious object emerging just above Earth's horizon, followed by the appearance of a glowing beam was spotted during a live Nasa UStream from the ISS.

The skies above the home planet are becoming increasingly busy, with communications and research satellites collecting and relaying data for modern life.

The most recent claim comes days after another 'craft' was spotted in an ISS live feed just before the transmission mysteriously went down.

It has prompted debate among conspiracy theorists who believe the feed was cut intentionally as part of an alien cover-up being conducted by Nasa.

In the clip, a glowing horseshoe-shaped object appears to be floating toward the ISS while rotating on the horizon.

The feed is then apparently cut for around an hour before it resumes and a much smaller white light can be seen in the distance.

Conspiracy theorists say this may be the same craft that has since moved away - dismissing the idea that it could be lens flare or even the moon.
