Description

Before the Buga Sphere captured headlines in 2025, there was another — a sphere that rolled on its own, hummed to music, and left scientists speechless. In 1974, the Betz family of Florida found a metallic orb that defied physics and baffled the Navy.
It disappeared soon after — and the mystery never died.


In this episode of Mostly True Alien Stories, Neal and Andrew uncover the strange parallels between The Betz Sphere and today’s Buga Sphere, exploring whether history’s weirdest artifact has finally come full circle. Was it alien tech… or just another perfectly round problem?

🎙️ Listen now and decide for yourself — mostly true, or not.
