A Chinese airport was closed after this mysterious object was spotted in the sky.
Arcing over Zhejiang’s provincial capital Hangzhou, the UFO appeared to glow with an eerie white light and left a bright trail in its wake.
Xiaoshan Airport was closed after the UFO was detected at around 9 pm and dozens of flights had to be diverted.
Stunned witnesses reported seeing a comet-like fireball in the sky and a number of local residents took photos of the strange ball of light.
A local bus driver, giving his name only as Yu, said he had seen a strange glowing object in the sky late on Wednesday afternoon.
‘The thing suddenly ran westwards fast, like it was escaping from something,’ he said.
Inbound flights were diverted to nearby airports while outbound flights were delayed for three to four hours.
Some Chinese experts claimed that the strange sight was actually debris from a US intercontinental ballistic missile.
Chinese officials later said that they knew what the object had been but were unable to make it public because there was a ‘military connection.’
seems they have been quite busy over china this year

one guy recons it’s a situation of shutters being open for like a second, and it’s a plane taking off. or even a chopper with search lights on?

the same one, here i can see the building on the left has a shadow, so definitely some long exposure going on there.
