A strange white object has been spotted in archive footage of a NASA shuttle launch that took place in 2011.
Predictably, UFO hunters across the internet have been sent into a frenzy by the find, claiming it is evidence of an alien craft.
The shimmery white spectacle can be seen in the clouds alongside the fuel tank discarded from the space shuttle Endeavour after it blasts off for its final mission in May 2011.
Originally posted on NASA's official YouTube channel, the old footage has been dug up and re-examined by UFO enthusiasts. It was re-uploaded to the channel UFO Today , which is dedicated to "the UFO phenomena".
According to the channel's interpretation, the strange object is the "White Knight Satellite" - a rumoured extra-terrestrial craft that has been secretly orbiting the Earth for thousands of years.

Early in the shuttle program, the explosive bolts that attach the solid fuel boosters were coming back a gouging the main tank.
The solution was to manufacture “Explosive bolt capture box” attached to the main tank. The object could be one of those bolts.
.... “The shimmery white spectacle”
Most likely it was just another preamble to White Christmas.
I agree.
It’s that damned center fuel tank again!
Yet another mysterious object in the sky.
Funny how no one can no one ever get a clear pic?
It is obviously swamp gas, or a reflection of Jupiter off the rocket.
Here is another ufo
NFL banner?
If it’s secret how do they know about it, and how do they know it’s been “thousands of years”? How many thousands? 2? 50?
Sure looks like it. Something left behind by a tech working on the space craft. Maybe some foil from a shroud or ice buildup from some vent on the craft.
Looks like a couple of Soyuz Capsules with some other items on each end.
