After a fire, the Betz family discovered a mysterious sphere about the size of a bowling ball. This unusual object rolled and vibrated on its own while emitting a high-pitched humming sound, quickly capturing national attention. The U.S. Navy intervened to investigate the sphere, determining that it was not military property. They found it to be made of stainless steel and confirmed that it was manufactured on Earth. Despite this, many preferred the more entertaining theory that aliens had dropped the sphere into the Floridian woods, dismissing the Navy's findings.
