It looks like a craft from another galaxy, but this is actually a huge cloud floating above China.

It was spotted over Xiamen city in Fujian province – and the photographer caught the moment an airliner was dramatically silhouetted against the sky close by.

The plane is completely dwarfed by the cloud, which is a type that normally forms when cool air passes over mountains.

Many people are emphatically stating that this cloud is actually a cloaked UFO. While it is very unusual it is simply a altocumulus lenticularis cloud.
