Footage of a mysterious UFO in the night sky above the major Chinese city of Shenzhen has recorded more than four millions views around the world, at the time of writing.

Hundreds of residents who witnessed the strange sighting likened it to “UFOs” and “alien spaceships”.

The residents in Shenzhen were left baffled by the strange sighting, as videos of the event quickly went viral.

The clips even became a trending topic on Weibo, China’s equivalent platform to Twitter.

One person asked: “Could it be some sort of doomsday prediction?” 

The local weather authorities identified the atmospheric optical phenomenon that occurs when natural or artificial light reflects off flat ice crystals in the air.

The officials from the Shenzhen Meteorological Bureau said in a social media post: “We call these ‘warm night light pillars’. They form in conditions that are even more particular than regular light pillars.

“The formation not only requires the existence of high-altitude clouds and the absence of low- and medium-altitude clouds.

“It also needs high humidity in the air, high atmospheric visibility, low wind, as well as ice crystals.

“It wouldn’t occur unless all of the elements were present. You guys who spotted this scene were really lucky.”
