You probably read the title of this story and instantly though, “ok what’s the catch?” No catch. Just this video which shows a coronal mass ejection from our sun washing over and interacting with a strange object floating in space which seems to be in the shape of an artificially created craft.

Here’s the video, we’ll talk more afterward…

The images were captured by a camera on board NASA’s STEREO A satellite. They were also captured separately by their STEREO B satellite, so this isn’t a case of equipment malfunction.

So what in the world is it? No one seems to have really come up with a good way to explain this away yet. Gizmodo talked to a ground engineer named Nathan Rich at the Naval Research Laboratory who says he thinks this image is an “artifact” in the background where the planet was the previous day, caused by the way they’re processed. But it really doesn’t look like that kind of video glitch, does it?

What do you think? Have we just gotten our first ever look at a cloaked alien ship, skulking around in our solar system?
