SPACE fans think they’ve spied a UFO flying past the ISS.
Footage from Elon Musk’s SpaceX craft appears to show a strange metallic object in view for a brief moment.
Eagled-eyed watchers hailed the clip as “amazing”.
It was uploaded by YouTuber Third Phase of Moon, who regularly posts apparent sightings of unidentified flying objects.
In this latest video, footage from the SpaceX Cargo Dragon seemingly shows an object passing nearby.
The Cargo Dragon is a reusable supply vehicle that docks to the ISS with re-stock materials.

It’s possible that it’s a bit of space debris, or a satellite passing in the distance.
There are thousands of probes in Earth’s orbit, and it’s likely that fans caught a glimpse of one passing by.
But YouTube fans are speculating that it’s a secret Space Force project.
Among space watchers, the jury is out.
“Some people might speculate that this is space debris but it’s way too close to the ISS and too large,” the YouTube channel creator told the Daily Star.

Its first docking took place in early December, marking a major achievement for SpaceX.
