The Betz Sphere (1974): A Fort George Island Anomaly Tested by the Navy and Left Unexplained
To the point
A 1974 case on Fort George Island started when 21-year-old Terry Betz found a hollow metal sphere that moved by itself, sang tones, and unsettled dogs and doors, leading to Navy tests arranged by Gerri Betz and examined by J. A. Harder and J. Allen Hynek who could not fully explain its self-directed motion, with analysis describing a 7.96‑inch, 21.34‑pound Type 431 stainless steel shell containing three inner dense elements, while its fate after the mid‑1970s remains unclear and Patrick Jackson’s Quantum Paranormal model places it in a broader theory of non‑human intelligence.
