A ‘UFO’ was spotted floating around an active volcano.
Webcam footage showed the eerie glowing object hovering around the crater before suddenly zipping off.
The suspected flying saucer appeared to be monitoring the smoking crater as smoke and flames leaped into the air.

The bizarre phenomenon was captured by monitoring cameras at the Popocatepetl volcano in the states of Puebla and Morelos in Mexico.
Popocatepetl stands at an altitude of 17,802 feet (5,426 metres) and is one of the country’s most active volcanoes.
The images were captured last Thursday (30 Oct).
So far, the authorities have not issued a statement on the origin of the mysterious flying object.
The National Center for Disaster Prevention reported 19 low-intensity eruptions accompanied by vapour, gases and small amounts of ash on the day in question.

They called on the public to stay away from the crater and respect the 12-kilometre exclusion zone.
Last year, UFO expert Jaime Maussan, 72, claimed that Popocatepetl is acting as an “inter-dimensional portal”, a gateway in space-time that allows intergalactic travellers to enter one place from another.
He explained that no man-made object could enter the crater as temperatures reach around 1,000 degrees Celsius, as reported by What’s the Jam.

Maussan explained: “The University of Bergen in Norway discovered that under the volcano there are magnetic storms necessary to be able to generate X-points – or regions of electron diffusion – and be used to create a Dimensional Portal.”
X-points are places where the magnetic field of Earth connects to the magnetic field of the Sun, creating a path from our own planet to the Sun’s atmosphere 93 million miles away.
They are referred to as X-points because the Sun’s magnetic force is intertwined with that of the Earth creating an X shape.
