KEY POINTS

  • UFO expert Scott Waring spotted UFOs flying near the Crew Dragon capsule
  • The incident happened as the capsule was docking with the ISS
  • Waring believes alien vessels were observing the mission

A UFO expert claimed to have spotted alien vessels moving in front of SpaceX’s Crew Dragon capsule as it prepares to dock with the International Space Station (ISS) for its Demo-2 mission. Footage of the incident was captured by SpaceX’s live camera.

On May 30, SpaceX was able to successfully launch the Crew Dragon capsule for its first human test flight into space. For the mission, NASA astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley were selected to board the capsule as it makes its way to the ISS.

As part of the historic mission, the Crew Dragon docked with the ISS on May 31. As Hurley and Behnken boarded the massive orbiting station, they joined the crew members of its Expedition 63.

The capsule’s docking process with the ISS was documented by SpaceX through live cameras mounted on Crew Dragon. As the capsule prepared to dock with the station, bright spherical objects can be seen moving in front of it.

Based on the video, which was shared on YouTube by the user João Paulo Fernandes, the objects moved at a steady pace in different directions.

After watching the video, UFO expert Scott Waring of ET Data Base claimed in a recent blog post that the objects could be alien drones that were observing the Crew Dragon capsule.

According to Waring, the alleged alien vessels were probably watching the mission since it was a historical event.

“This is a great capture of a UFO flying past the Dragon SpaceX capsule while it was about to dock at the space station,” he stated in a blog post. “This UFO passed in front of the SpaceX capsule, so we know it is small, like an alien drone monitoring history being made.”

“It’s strange that neither NASA or SpaceX mentions what this strange glowing object is since it came within a few meters of the capsule carrying two astronauts,” he added.

Although Waring strongly believes that the objects in the video were alien vessels, it is also possible that they were simple pieces of debris floating around in space. They could also be satellites, asteroids, or even specks of dust moving in front of the cameras.
