The orb, about 1.5 meters in diameter, has been the focus of speculation since it washed up on Enshu Beach in Hamamatsu on the country’s Pacific coast, according to local media. Fears it was a lost mine were allayed after experts used X-ray technology to examine the object’s interior and discovered it was hollow. There is also no indication that he might be involved in espionage activities by neighboring North Korea or China.

Photos of the object have been sent to the Japan Self-Defense Forces and the Coast Guard for further study. During this time, the ball is still on the beach.Police began looking at the orange-brown object with darker rust spots after a local woman spotted it lying on the sand a few feet from the shore while walking earlier this week, a reported Asahi TV. Meanwhile, a local resident who regularly runs on the beach said he couldn’t understand why the ball had suddenly become the center of attention. “He’s been on the beach for a month now, he told public broadcaster NHK. I tried to push him, but he didn’t move.”It has been suggested that it resembles an element of the popular Japanese comic book “Dragon Ball”, while others thought it was a UFO falling from the sky. Television footage of the facility sparked speculation on social media, shortly after Japanese authorities said several suspicious spy balloons had been sighted over Japan in recent years.
