A mysterious iron ball has been discovered in Japan, off its Pacific coast. The sphere has a diameter of 1.5 meters and its origin is unknown. Authorities have no idea what it might be, but they say it won't explode.
Checks by experts who also used X-ray technology have ruled out the track being a mine. The sphere is completely empty inside. The mysterious rust-colored metal ball has also attracted the attention of local residents in the city of Hamamatsu, who have not stopped speculating.
Some let their imagination run wild and think it could be "a ball dropped from space" or "an egg of some monster".
There are also those who say that it resembles the sphere that fell from the sky reflected in the cartoon series Dragon Ball, but there are also those who support the theory that it is a UFO.
However, the most reliable clue so far is that the mysterious object may simply be a buoy placed in the sea or lake, usually not far from the shore, as a warning sign or as a support where ships are temporarily tied. The local authorities have announced that the sphere will be moved from there soon.
