Astonishing footage of a UFO hovering above Earth has been caught by NASA cameras. The incredible video, captured on the US space agency's live camera sees the cone-shaped object keep pace with the International Space Station (ISS) above it. In a bizarre twist, the NASA camera zooms in on the object, appearing to show the US space agency acknowledges the UFO.
Another possibility is that it's some metal part that drifted away during maintenance close to the ISS drifting away and upward, and the glow at the end is the sun striking it when it exits the ISS's shadow. With a video like this, there's no reference to tell how large the object is. Which is also a problem with the Black Night photos.
If you read the posts from the link one of them says exactly what it is and it isn't a UFO.
And if you read further, you will see a comment from someone who does not agree and mentions flashing lights and apparent speeding up or raising in altitude (in space this can be mistaken). I dont know who is correct because I cannot see the Youtube clip. You guys decide.
Anyway, I assume you are referring to this...?

If anyone cares what that thing actually is... It's the Japanese Inter orbit Communication System (ICS) that used to be attached to the ISS next to the large boxes on the payload facility shown in the bottom of the video.
The ICS was jettisoned because it was no longer needed. The jettison was described in the ISS status report and it happened around noon on the 21st. That's why the ISS cameras are tracking it, because we want to make sure we know the orbit so it doesn't hit the ISS on a future orbit.
I have no doubt that the japanese ICS was released, but when was it done(noon) and what is the time of the video? Are they the same? Is there a time stamp on the video? It is easy to point to one event and then assume we are seeing that event, but what if the ISS is being monitored which it would seem is happening due to other sightings being reported in the past.

Why does NASA cut the live feed when things like this happen, if its just debris?
I wanted to add that I do NOT believe any 'black knight satellite' exists, the theory is ridiculous imo, Cmon, an old alien satellite and they just left it floating around for 1000s of years? LOL
I'm not super into aliens, so my first line of thought would be that it's a potential military craft belonging to another country. Maybe be Russia, Japan, or China..(idk?) So if the US tries something, we're gettin fried from space.
