Mysterious black cube spotted on the sun before NASA website shuts down
Viewers watching NASA footage of the sun spotted a mysterious black cube emerging from the star before the web page blacked out.
A mysterious black cube was spotted emerging from the Sun on NASA cam footage before the website suddenly shut down.
The event has sent conspiracy theorist wild but experts say there’s a reasonable explanation.
Scott C Waring, a self proclaimed ‘alien expert’, wrote on his UFO sightings blog: “I was watching the SOHO sun viewer when I noticed a black cube in a few frames of the video.
“Right after the cube exited the sun … a huge solid black screen covered up 25 per cent of the whole viewing area.
“It’s clear that NASA is trying to hide these cubes from us.”
The incident was said to take place on May 2, according to The Sun.
The footage was recorded by the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory.
The craft is part of a project shared by NASA and the European Space Agency.
Footage and images from the project are made available online.
In the case of this ‘black cube’, there was some unfortunate timing with site maintenance.
Waring claims the site shut down shortly after he spotted the cube.
This isn’t the first time a black cube has been spotted near the Sun and Waring has even reported seeing them in the past.
He posted a video about the cube on YouTube, which now has thousands of views.
One person commented: “Absolutely amazing these cubes have been seen at other times, cube shaped so very close to the sun and another one beneath it, what were they covering up the black out shape they put up seemed to be a oblong shape and to the left of the cube further away?”
Another added: “Great clip. I feel outraged every time they hide something like this.”
Although this may seem suspicious to Waring and his fans, experts have a reasonable explanation.
Bernhard Fleck, SOHO project scientist and mission manager, previously explained to Vice: “This is of course complete and utter nonsense.
“The black square is due to a missing (corrupted) telemetry block.”
That means the black square is a glitch in the footage and not a mysterious object or NASA trying to hide an alien craft from us.
