A giant ‘UFO’ has been spotted hiding behind a brooding cloud in the night sky.
The clip shows a grid of throbbing bright lights above the misty cover.
Onlookers said the alleged spacecraft appeared motionless behind the thick cloud, as if hiding from prying eyes.

The clip went viral on X with 80,000 views and dozens of comments on Tuesday (22 Sep).
Viewers said it looked like an alien craft parked high above the main island of Taiwan.
Because of its apparent size, some users claimed it was a mothership.
One user joked: “The aliens are here to get our microchips.”
Another added: “If it has lights, it is man-made. UFOs do not need navigation lights.”

“What if China is studying what the US did to Venezuela and Cuba so they can develop something similar to attack Taiwan?” asked a third.
Others claimed it was drones, ground searchlights, or fishing-boat lamps bouncing off low fog.
Similar sky grids over Taiwan have in the past been traced to festivals and light shows, as reported by What’s The Jam.

There has been no statement from Taiwan’s defence or civil aviation authorities about the bizarre sighting.
Earlier this month, a diamond-shaped UFO was spotted darting among clouds by a pilot in Mexico.
The clip showed the dark object crossing paths with the plane in the overcast sky.
Startled reactions were heard on the cabin audio as the object glided past the cockpit.
The video was posted by Mexican UFO hunter ‘Extraterrestre’, who said it was recorded from the cockpit of a well-known Mexican airline and sent to him.
