Metallic UFO Sphere Orb Tokyo Japan Incident (2016)

In June 2016, an unusual metallic orb was seen hovering over a quiet neighborhood in Tokyo, Japan. The sighting occurred around noon, a time when the area was usually bustling with activity. However, on this particular day, the streets were eerily silent, setting the stage for an encounter that would leave a lasting impression.

At first glance, the object didn’t immediately strike the witness as anything out of the ordinary. It was simply there—rotating and hovering about 30 to 40 feet above the ground. The sun reflected off its metallic surface, revealing indentations along its sides. It made no noise, an unsettling detail given how quiet the surroundings already were. Despite its strange presence, the observer felt unexpectedly calm while watching it and managed to capture it on video.

It wasn’t until after leaving the scene that the weight of the experience truly set in. A sudden realization washed over them—this wasn’t something easily explained. Turning back to take another look, they found that the orb had vanished without a trace. The footage captured the object’s gentle vertical bobbing motion.

Further analysis of the video suggests that the orb was not a small drone or balloon. Using reference objects in the footage, calculations estimate that the orb measured approximately 2.47 meters (8.1 feet) in width and 3.47 meters (11.4 feet) in height, making it roughly the size of a small car. The estimated distance from the camera was around 870 meters (2,854 feet), indicating that the object was hovering at a considerable range. The motion patterns and its reflective metallic surface further support the idea that this was no ordinary airborne object.

The witness has never seen anything like it before or since. No official explanation has ever surfaced, leaving the 2016 Tokyo metallic orb incident as an enduring mystery.
