Two unidentified flying objects (UFOs) were spotted near Nasas International Space Station (ISS) on Friday.

The UFOs are believed to be visible on a live video feed from the ISS camera, which maintains a 24-hour feed.

UStream says, "Live video from the International Space Station includes internal views when the crew is on-duty and Earth views at other times. The video is accompanied by audio of conversations between the crew and Mission Control. This video is only available when the space station is in contact with the ground."

The sighting was made by UFO enthusiast and blogger Scott C Waring, who wroteon his blog: This UFO must be huge, because the space station itself is 109 meters across and 73 meters wide, and in comparison with the space station and the distance we can assume the smaller of the UFOs is about 5-10 meters and the longer UFO is about 20-25 meters.

Also note in the video that the astronaut asks about the interval between the photos taken from the live cam on the ISS, as he hints at the UFO being there without actually saying so, he added.

One of two videos of the sighting has been uploaded on YouTube.

Earlier this week, hundreds of baseball fans were left baffled when a UFO was spotted during a minor league game. The match was taking place at the Scotiabank Field at Nat Bailey Stadium in Vancouver, Canada.

The sighting, which brought luck for the Vancouver Canadians (the eventual winners of the match), came towards the start of the sixth innings and also got viewers tweeting photos of the unusual object with glowing lights. No explanation for the sighting has been made.

Space Station Live: Flight Director Talks Spacesuit Troubleshooting - Video

An astronaut working onboard the International Space Station (ISS) has revealed his "lucky charm" a miniature toy astronaut figurine in a video recently sent down to Earth.

"I was going through personal things [that] I have flown for people and came across my own personal item I'd like to share with everybody," NASA astronaut and Expedition 36 flight engineer Chris Cassidy said in the video, which was released online Wednesday (Sept. 4). "This little astronaut guy has seen better days but he has special meaning."

In the video, Cassidy holds up and lets float the 3-inch-tall (7.6 centimeters) toy, which was sculpted to appear to be wearing the same type of spacesuit that Cassidy has worn on spacewalks outside the space station.

"Before I was selected as an astronaut, I knew I wanted to become one and I somehow came across this guy in a toy set for my kids, or something like that," Cassidy recalled.

Flying to the space station is just the latest adventure for the plastic figure, Cassidy said.

As a Navy SEAL, Cassidy was deployed on four 6-month missions, including being sent to Afghanistan two weeks after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

"I took him with me to Afghanistan every time and he was always in my pocket on every mission that I did," Cassidy said from aboard the space station.

Cassidy was chosen to join NASA's ranks in 2004 with the agency's 19th group of astronaut candidates.

"When I was selected to become an astronaut, I felt like [the figurine] was a good luck charm, so he has been with me every step of the way," Cassidy said. "He often flies in T-38 [training jets] with me and various other places. I just leave him in the pocket of my flight suit and I often kind of forget that he is there."

"It [also] flew on the space shuttle," Cassidy, who made his first visit to the space station on space shuttle Endeavour's STS-127 mission in 2009, added.
