UFO sphere scientists uncover incredible features in ball 'that fell from space'
The Buga Sphere was spotted zig-zagging in the sky over the Colombian town in a way no conventional aircraft is capable of before being recovered shortly after it landed in a field
A metallic sphere covered in bizarre symbols which was recovered after it 'landed' in a field in Colombia has been subjected to new analysis with researchers citing shocking evidence it is a genuine UFO. Dubbed the Buga Sphere, it was spotted March 2 over the town of Buga, zig-zagging around the sky in a way no conventional aircraft is capable of.
The object was recovered shortly after it landed in a field and has been since analysed by scientists. Researchers claimed they found three layers of metal-like material and 18 microspheres surrounding a central nucleus they are calling 'a chip.'
Now new analysis has given rise to evidence which points to a strong, decaying ionized field coming from the Buga sphere, said Rodolfo Garrido, a Mexican engineer working with a team from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM).
In a recent appearance on Maussan Televisión, Garrido revealed what scientists have found out so far about the sphere and its purpose, following months of research. He revealed to stunned viewers that the sphere had increased in weight since it landed and was now five times heavier, despite never changing in volume.
Garrido said the sphere was capable of generating its own electromagnetic field, speaking to UFO researcher Jaime Maussan on the TV program Interstellar. He added this field was used to levitate above the ground.
However not everyone is convinced by the findings. Dr Julia Mossbridge of the University of San Diego's Department of Physics and Biophysics cast doubt on the outlandish reports, instead saying the sphere was a 'man-made art project'.
Jaime Maussan has previously been involved with several debunked UFO claims in the past. He has claimed to have discovered evidence of real UFO sightings, only for it to be debunked as a comet or star in the night sky.
Maussan has also claimed to have discovered physical evidence of mummified alien corpses on three separate occasions, but none of the incidents have been proven true. In this case, however, scientists at UNAM said this levitation system somehow allowed the sphere to maintain a low weight of just over four pounds.
The sphere's flight, which was caught on several TikTok videos, was allegedly interrupted after it struck a power cable, causing its electromagnetic field to destabilise and eventually land. The UNAM team just published their newest report on the Buga sphere.
The new paper details how a microscope was set to 2,000 times normal view in order to see the hidden wiring, invisible to the human eye. The complex wire system is said to run in different directions and connects to the copper pins and points on the sphere's surface, including something resembling a microchip.
During the broadcast on June 7, Maussan said: "This is just the beginning. Strategies and plans are already being developed. Various laboratories have been hired to attempt reverse engineering to understand how this sphere works."
Initial X-rays of the sphere in March could not find any seams that would provide evidence of how the object was built. But, despite that, Dr Mossbridge is doubtful that the mysterious probe was an actual UFO.
The cognitive neuroscientist also noted that no direct connection has been made between videos of the Buga sphere and the actual metal object found in the Colombian woods.

‘Disc-shaped' UFO spotted by US military in eerie footage newly released to public – ‘It has implications that are huge'
EERIE new footage taken by the US military has captured a never-before-seen disc-shaped UFO mysteriously darting through the air. Independent journalist Jeremy Corbell leaked the video and said he was stunned by the "implications" of the jaw-dropping sight. 5 5 5 He published the video on his social media on Tuesday, which captures the unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP) soaring through the clouds. Corbell said the clip has made history because of the object's shape. Most UFOs caught on camera have a sort of pill shape, but this one looks straight out of a science-fiction movie. The video was taken by the military on November 23, 2020, and it was released after Corbell spent years verifying the footage with inside sources. He said that US officials themselves admitted the UAP was a "disc" with an unknown origin. They said the craft "displayed abrupt movement and intelligent control" as it can be seen flying to the right before suddenly changing directions. The UFO also noticeably doesn't give off any heat signatures or signs of thermal propulsion like a normal aircraft would. Between the never-before-seen shape and the bizarre movement, Corbell said the sighting "has implications that are huge," he told the Daily Mail. "This is the first time in history that military filmed footage of a disc-shaped UAP, designated as such by the military, has been captured on camera and released to the public," he said. Corbell explained that it was "astonishing" that a UFO of that shape could nimbly dart through the air without emitting heat signatures. UFO zooms past cruise ship at 'almost imperceptible speed' in eerie video as onlookers gasp 'what was that-!' "It's a perfect-looking disc, maybe it's an orb," he told NBC News. The object is believed to be between 200 and 400 meters in diameter, but Corbell said that the size is debated. It was captured flying around the border region of Afghanistan and Pakistan, according to coordinates seen in the corner of the video. The military still considers the object a UAP and continues to investigate the sighting, according to Corbell. 5 5 CORBELL'S CALL The journalist claims that he's spoken with service members who had first-hand experience witnessing the footage. He called for Congress to respond to the video and said that military whistleblowers are ready to testify and describe what they saw. Corbell hopes that releasing this footage will encourage transparency from officials who witness UAPs. "The source is legit. We know it's real," Corbell's cohost George Knapp said in their podcast Weaponized. "It was not supposed to be made public. But it should've been." Corbell previously told The Sun that UFOs have been kept a secret so that militaries can adapt their technology for warfare. And he released disturbing details about a "huge alien aircraft" that was caught hovering over a US military base. What is the 'Tic Tac'? THE Tic Tac UFO is a mysterious flying object that U.S. pilots and experts have claimed to have witnessed over the last few decades. The first famous sighting with footage took place off the San Diego coast in 2004, after pilots on the USS Nimitz carrier strike group detected the object. Commander David Fravor believed it to be something beyond human technology - as it possessed extreme acceleration and no visible propulsion. Then in 2015, pilots on the USS Roosevelt off the East Coast captured footage of unidentified moving objects. They also showed no means of propulsion and moved at high speeds. Speculation online has caused alien fanatics to look for more Tic Tac-shaped space paraphernalia, including a Russian military base which appeared to be a Tic Tac UFO "charging hub". The Pentagon has also acknowledged other declassified videos of encounters, but have been unable to explain them.

UFO invasion in Colombia as SECOND mysterious sphere appears in the sky
A mysterious metallic sphere was captured soaring above a field in Colombia, just two months after locals recovered a similar object many are calling a UFO. The footage, filmed on June 7 over a sugarcane field in Yumbo, shows the sphere darting in a zigzag pattern and maneuvering in ways that appear to defy conventional aircraft. Witnesses described the object as 'moving with great speed and freedom' as it hovered above the ground. However, many people said the object is either a balloon or the video was created using AI. UFO researcher Jaime Maussan, whose research has stirred controversy for nearly a decade, released the video on his show, Maussan Television. He described the sphere as 'likely not from here' and suggested it may be a technology humans do not yet possess. 'When the workers were investigating the crops, this sphere appeared and they were able to capture it with state-of-the-art equipment. The images are truly extraordinary,' Maussan said. He added that the latest sphere appeared nearly identical to the first, recovered in Buga, about 43 miles from Yumbo. Scientists who analyzed the latest video said the object emits an electromagnetic field, generates strong heat and may possess antigravity capabilities. 'We believe these spheres are investigating, observing us, possibly searching for the first one recovered in Buga,' Maussan said in a translated statement. 'Could we be on the path to contact? That's the extraordinary question we're asking today.' The first Buga sphere, recovered on March 2 by locals, weighed about 4.5 pounds and was described as 'having the temperature of a refrigerator when touched, but emitting strong heat when not.' A team led by Guatemalan researcher Jose Manrique analyzed the Yumbo video and insisted it had been manipulated by A. If it is indeed identical to the first, the object may be inscribed with strange 'alien' writing, a message for humanity, which Manrique's team previously deciphered to say: 'The origin of birth through union and energy in the cycle of transformation, meeting point of unity, expansion, and consciousness — individual consciousness.' Manrique interpreted it as 'a message to humanity, encouraging a collective shift in consciousness to help Mother Earth, especially considering the current issues with pollution and environmental decline.' The identities of the workers who filmed the Yumbo sphere have not been made public, but Maussan said the video was sent to David Vélez el Potro, a key figure in the recovery of the Buga sphere. Vélez el Potro told Maussan in March that the man who found it, Jose, felt sick for days after touching the object. He also claimed that the government contacted him to hand it over the sphere, but he refused, saying, 'It would never be seen again.' Instead, Vélez el Potro gave it to Maussan and his team of experts with hopes of them uncovering the sphere's origin. Scientists who examined the Buga sphere said it comprises 18 microspheres surrounding a central nucleus, a configuration some are calling 'a chip.' However, Dr Julia Mossbridge of the University of San Diego Department of Physics and Biophysics, has doubted the authenticity of Buga sphere, calling it a 'man-made art project.' Researchers from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) recently released a new analysis, suggesting a strong, decayed ionized field emits from the Buga sphere. Rodolfo Garrido, a Mexican engineer, said his team weighed the sphere numerous times and were surprised to find it growing heavier, from 16 to 20 and then 22 pounds, without changing in size. Garrido explained that this phenomenon may be due to the object's ability to manipulate gravity and generate its own electromagnetic field, allowing it to become lighter or heavier at will. The revelations were presented on Maussan's TV program Interstellar, although the journalist's involvement has raised eyebrows. Maussan has previously made headlines for sensational, and subsequently debunked, claims, including mummified corpses and other supposed extraterrestrial finds. Nonetheless, the latest incident has captured the imagination of many and ignited a heated debate about what, or who, might be visiting us from the skies above.

Mysterious 'flying saucer' in the Sahara Desert is discovered on Google Maps – as baffled viewers suggest it could be a crashed UFO
From a mysterious 'doorway' in the Antarctic to hidden symbols in the Gobi Desert, Google Maps has revealed some weird and wonderful secrets over the years. But this latest discovery might be one of the strangest yet. Keen-eyed internet sleuths have spotted what seems to be a 'flying saucer' buried in the Sahara Desert. According to some baffled viewers, the unusual structure could be a crashed UFO that has been buried for thousands of years. The mysterious object is located near the tiny town of Bordj Omar Driss, Algeria, deep within the Sahara Desert. UFO hunter Scott Waring, who made the strange discovery, told MailOnline: 'It's likely the UFO has been there for tens of thousands of years, predating recorded human history. 'I also want to note, that the CIA and other organizations will have people try to label any discoveries of UFOs on Google Earth Map as something else in order to manipulate and deceive the public from knowing the truth.' Unfortunately for these alien hunters, experts say there is a much simpler explanation. The odd structure was spotted on Google Maps at the coordinates 28°8'45.15'N 6°48'20.85'E. In a video sharing his findings, Mr Waring claims that the 'UFO' is buried 34.4 feet (10.5m) according to Google Earth Pro's elevation measuring tools. Mr Waring told MailOnline that, at the Sahara's sediment accumulation rate of 0.5 mm per year, the 'UFO' must have landed 21,000 years ago to be buried so deeply. He also points to the fact that the structure isn't present in early satellite images of the site, suggesting that it must have been 'excavated' recently. On social media, Mr Waring's surprising comments have found widespread support, as commenters rushed to share their excitement. One enthusiastic commenter wrote: 'I would love to know the whole story but this definitely looks like a crash site or something considering it popped up on the map out of nowhere.' 'I wonder whether some bodies have been found... This is so weird,' added another. While one conspiratorially minded commenter wrote: 'Take screen shots everyone, cause you know Google is going to make this disappear.' Adding fuel to the flames of speculation, Mr Waring adds: 'The UFO seems to have been torn open around the lower center dome. Possibly to enter the craft in order to loot it before government officials get hold of it.' However, the real explanation for this strange site is much more mundane. Nick Pope, former UFO investigator for the Ministry of Defence, told MailOnline: 'With the recent expansion in the capabilities of AI, it's increasingly difficult to ensure that images haven't been faked, or doctored. 'But even assuming the picture is genuine and not altered in any way, it's impossible to tell much from the image alone. 'There's no context, and applying the principle of Occam's Razor - that the simplest explanation is usually the correct one - this is more likely to be a circular building or structure of some sort than a crashed alien spacecraft.' And, thanks to the work of some online investigators, we actually know exactly what kind of building this is. The 'mysterious' structure is actually just the foundation for an onshore wind turbine. Before the tower is added, these huge reinforced concrete structures are dug deep into the ground which would explain why the structure appears to be below the surface. Seen side by side, aerial photographs of a confirmed wind turbine foundation (left) and the supposed UFO (right) show how similar the two are With a classic 'flying saucer' shape of a round body and central dome, it is easy to see how someone might mistake these structures for a UFO. But looking at aerial photographs of known wind turbines you can see that this Saharan structure is almost certainly the base of another wind turbine. In other satellite images of the location, this similarity is even clearer. Likewise, as UFO analyst and sceptic Mick West points out, there is another foundation just to the southwest where the tower of the wind turbine has already started construction. Algeria, where these were found, is currently undergoing a major investment in wind power, with the government aiming to produce 27 per cent of its electricity from renewable resources by 2035. The country also has some of the world's greatest potential for wind power with consistent wind speeds of up to eight metres per second in many regions. This makes it a lot more likely that there would be a wind turbine under construction than a secret, ancient UFO hidden beneath the desert. Unfortunately, UFO investigators say wild claims like these actually interfere with their search for extraterrestrial life. UFO researcher Philip Mantle, told MailOnline: 'The vast majority of UFO sighting reports including photos and video end up having a rational explanation. 'Then there is an amount that just doesn't have enough info to reach a conclusion. 'This leaves only a very small minority that may be left for serious examination. 'Photos like this are not to be taken seriously and rank alongside stories that Elvis is still alive and he lives with Lord Lucan.' WHAT DID BUZZ ALDRIN SAY ABOUT HIS 'UFO ENCOUNTER'? While UFO enthusiasts have long clung to Buzz Aldrin's story of a strange light appearing alongside his spacecraft in 1969, the Apollo 11 astronaut does not think what he saw was an alien. During a 2014 Q&A on Reddit, he explained: 'On Apollo 11 in route to the Moon, I observed a light out the window that appeared to be moving alongside us. There were many explanations of what that could be, other than another spacecraft from another country or another world - it was either the rocket we had separated from, or the 4 panels that moved away when we extracted the lander from the rocket and we were nose to nose with the two spacecraft. 'So in the close vicinity, moving away, were 4 panels. And i feel absolutely convinced that we were looking at the sun reflected off of one of these panels. Which one? I don't know. So technically, the definition could be "unidentified." 'We well understood exactly what that was. And when we returned, we debriefed and explained exactly what we had observed. 'And I felt that this had been distributed to the outside world, the outside audience, and apparently it wasn't, and so many years later, I had the time in an interview to disclose these observations, on another country's television network. And the UFO people in the United States were very very angry with me, that i had not given them the information. It was not an alien. Extraordinary observations require extraordinary evidence. 'That's what Carl Sagan said. There may be aliens in our Milky Way galaxy, and there are billions of other galaxies. The probability is almost CERTAIN that there is life somewhere in space. 'It was not that remarkable, that special, that unusual, that life here on earth evolved gradually, slowly, to where we are today.
