Space Mystery Controversy: Astronaut’s ISS Footage of Fireball Sparks Alien Claims, Fueling Speculation of NASA Concealing Evidence

Nasa has once again been accused of covering up the existence of alien life, after an astronaut captured footage of a UFO.

The mysterious object was spotted entering Earth’s atmosphere by one of the crew of the International Space Station.

‘You’re seeing the earth spinning at a high rate of speed and we see this flash of light coming from space.

‘It does look to be moving at 85mph (136 km/ph).

‘But when you account how fast the earth would have actually been moving, had this not been sped up, it would have been moving much, much slower.

‘Speeds that are slower than even the slowest meterorites.

‘Why did they do this? Why were they so adamant about publishing this when when they’ve never jumped on a story so fast?’

Mr Glockner also says that the round ball is coming in at too steep an angle to be a meteorite.

In the video, he compares the object to another meteorite that fell to Earth during the 2011 Perseid meteor shower.

In this clip, the characteristic tail of a meteor that is missing from the ISS object can clearly be made out.

Mr Glockner added: ‘If you compare this to what they are calling a meteor in this new footage, at no time does this so called meteor look like anything that was captured back in 2011 – it just doesn’t.

‘It’s a short, stubby object that looks nothing like the other meteor here.

Tyler Glockner, who runs alien hunting YouTube Channel SecureTeam10, believes it is more proof of a government conspiracy to hide the existence of aliens

Nasa has previously been accused of covering up an alien sighting after a video surfaced showing six UFOs passing the ISS (pictured) live-stream shortly before it was cut

‘We can see this discharge, the energy coming from here vanish.’

Not everyone agrees with the paranormal explanation on offer.

Speaking to MailOnline Nigel Watson, author of the UFO Investigations Manual, said: ‘Nasa can’t win when it comes to dealing with UFOs.

‘In this instance, SecureTeam10 are complaining that the agency rushed to release the footage and has only put forward a meteor as the explanation.

‘I’d rather believe Nasa than SecureTeam10 any day.

‘Even if it was debris, it doesn’t turn it into a extraterrestrial scoutship filled with tentacled aliens on a mission to invade our planet, which is what SecureTeam10 imagines every time they see a blob of light filmed by Nasa cameras.’
