When the Calbuco volcano erupted Wednesday after being dormant for 40 years, it threw a lot of ash and smoke into the air.

It also may have attracted a UFO.

Photos and videos of the blast show a mysterious glowing craft hovering in mid-air near the eruption before disappearing.

Ana Luisa Cid uploaded a video of the alleged UFO to YouTube, describing it as "Luminous object near the plume, captured on 22 April 2015." She added, "Some believe it may be a drone or a police helicopter. What is striking, in my opinion, is that the object remained static, then vanished. Optical illusion?"

The flying object remains unidentified, but UFO researcher Marc Dantonio, believes it most likely is a drone.
