UFO hunters have found a ‘bizarre’ stationary structure on Venus that cannot be explained and could be ‘alien-made’.

Dismissing an explanation posited by scientists, conspiracy theorists believe there has been a media blackout surrounding Venus, and suggest there could be some kind of cover-up.

The object was first spotted by the Akatsuki spacecraft, also known as the Venus Climate Orbiter which was originally launched to study the atmosphere of Venus .

It is believed that the object was first spotted at the end of 2015 but there are still a number of explanations for what it could be.

At the beginning of the video, a caption reads: “Why is Nasa ignoring the strange happenings around Venus?”

The clip, uploaded by UFO hunter and Secure Team 10 founder Tyler Glockner , then goes on to claim that a large object is hidden beneath the sulphuric acid clouds of the planet.

Tyler says: “What you’re seeing here was captured by Japan’s Venus orbiting Akatsuki spacecraft, which photographed the anomaly for the first time in infrared light (a form of heat vision).”

He points out a giant band that appears to be stretching vertically over the surface of the entire planet, something that has allegedly left scientists stumped.

One theory proposes that the huge band could be a gravity wave – ripples through clouds of water vapour and ice – occurring when warm, expanding air rises and then suddenly cools, becoming more dense and falling back towards the surface due to gravity.

But Tyler dismisses this theory, claiming gravity waves are much smaller and sometimes only last a number of days, or even hours, before dissapating.

“Scientists have yet to ever see something as massive as what is being depicted here on Venus.

“Maybe this is something else all together. Some sort of massive structure hidden in the clouds. Or possibly a grouping of something. All coming together to form this giant band.

“It’s one of a kind.”

Tyler claims Japanese researchers have said that the object is “far being than any so-called gravity wave seen or planet Earth or Mars, making it ‘perhaps the greatest ever observed in the solar system’.”

Other scientists have called the structure: “Very, very bizarre,” with “no evident explanations”, a “surprise for all of us”.

It is believed that the structure is located directly above a mountain, on the equator of Venus.

And conspiracy theorists believe the unidentified object could be part of some big cover-up.

Tyler adds: “You always hear about Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto but you really don’t hear about Venus.

“It’s almost as if there has been some sort of media blackout surrounding it. It’s almost as if they have been trying to take out attention away from these two planets [Venus and Mercury].

“Maybe there’s something about these planets they don’t want us to know.”
