UFO Discovered In Old Photo From Space Taken By Apollo Astronaut In 1960s

It seems lately there have been a lot of UFO sightings, but folks witnessing unidentified objects flying around isn't a new thing. For centuries there have been stories of people seeing strange things in the sky, though it wasn't until the late 40's and early 50's, with tensions over the Cold War and the Korean War at a high, that the fascination with UFOs really picked up. Many people claimed to have seen UFOs back then, but since it was during a time when no one had a cameraphone in their pocket that could photograph or record the crafts, there wasn't much proof. However, that doesn't mean strange flying objects weren't captured on camera. In fact, one was just discovered in a photograph from the 1960s taken by one of NASA's own astronauts during an early Apollo mission spacewalk.
The picture, which was shot thousands of miles away from Earth, shows the planet from space. At the time, it just looked like land with lots of clouds above it, but it turns out there was more to it than that.
A YouTuber recently zoomed in on something in the pic and shared the surprising results. The small black speck he saw, when enlarged, takes the shape of a strange triangular craft, one he says has been seen before. The YouTuber stated it's "almost like [the UFO is] orbiting the Earth along with the astronauts who's (sic) likely when snapping this photo had no idea that this mysterious black, triangular was [there]."
Commenters are convinced, with one writing, "Incredible! That photo taken from space all those years back catching that triangle is solid proof for me."
Similar triangular objects have been photographed from the space station and during other shuttle missions. Some believe the crafts to be secret military space exploration vehicles, while others think they are extraterrestrial in origin. Of course, it could also just be space debris.
