Position on the Buga Sphere

Per src-buga-sphere-el-pais-cali-maussan-handoff-2025-10 and src-buga-sphere-infobae-true-origin-2025-10:

  • Describes the sphere as gray, ball-shaped, lacking visible welding seams, with engravings — but emphasizes “ufology has no scientific certainty.”
  • Considers it “probable that this is a recent technological artifact manufactured on Earth.”
  • Flags AI-era video fabrication as a plausible alternative explanation for circulating sphere clips.
