Something strange has been spotted hovering close to the International Space Station and it’s raising a few eyebrows.

Whispers of ‘UFO’ have begun to circulate after images appeared of the unidentified object on the horizon of the space station.

The sighting comes around two weeks since Jadon Beeson, 20, spotted a cigar-shaped object while watching a live stream from the ISS on his phone 

Images have emerged of an unidentified object spotted close to the International Space Station (pictured top left above the horizon). The images were captured by a member of the public from a live stream from the ISS

‘I thought it was all very strange,’ he added.

Beeson, from Stourport-on-Severn in Worcestershire, sent the images to the agency for its take.

The object (pictured on the horizon in the upper left part of the image) looks to be cigar-shaped, with a blueish hue on one end that matches the upper atmosphere, and looks to have a band in the middle of the object

It has been described as resembling something from Close Encounters of the Third Kind (still pictured), the Stephen Spielberg Hollywood sci-fi hit from the 1970s

The object reportedly appeared out of nowhere and disappeared (still pictured), but there is no accompanying footage from the live stream for context, its identity and its origin remain a mystery. However, it resembles similar objects which have been spotted previously, and which has been previously captured on video
