“Look, look, look,” a girl exclaims as she runs towards the cliff, excitedly pointing to a brilliant light next to the moon, floating above the islet of Es Vedrà, the Spanish island of Ibiza, reports coasttocoastam.com.
This light, intensely bright, suddenly shoots over the horizon at an astonishing speed, eliciting shouts of surprise from those nearby.
This astonishing scene, captured in a video that has since gone viral on social media, was reportedly filmed from the Cala d’Hort viewpoint at sunset last Sunday.

The mysterious light, which appears greener or bluer than the moon and has a more flattened, saucer-like shape reminiscent of classic science fiction films from the 1970s, has sparked widespread intrigue.
There is a lot of speculation about the origin of light. Some suggest it could be a prank, a cleverly staged hoax, or perhaps just a trick of the camera lens.
What adds to the intrigue is that this sighting is steeped in the legends that have surrounded Es Vedrà since the 1960s.
These legends portray the island as a mystical place, a center of cosmic energy, and in the most fantastic stories as an alien base. The latest video has only fueled these stories.
