Perfectly Round Metallic Sphere Glides Silently Over Colombia’s Valle del Cauca—UFO or Advanced Drone?
On January 29, 2026, a striking new video surfaced online showing a shiny metallic sphere moving effortlessly and without any sound across the sky above Valle del Cauca, Colombia.
The object’s flawless spherical shape and smooth flight have reignited intense debate, drawing direct comparisons to the well-known Buga sphere sightings that began in 2025.
For many, this latest sighting raises the same big question: are we witnessing extraterrestrial technology or something man-made?

Connection to the Buga Sphere Phenomenon
The original Buga sphere case exploded into public view in March 2025 when a similar metallic object was reportedly recovered after landing in the municipality of Buga, also located in Valle del Cauca.
The recovered sphere, covered in unusual markings and seamless construction, was handed over to researcher Jaime Maussan for analysis. Maussan and his team have claimed the object displays properties inconsistent with known human technology.
By 2026, the town of Buga even erected a monument commemorating the event, turning the area into a magnet for UFO enthusiasts. This new footage from nearby Valle del Cauca strongly suggests the phenomenon may still be active.
Leading Theories and Explanations
- Extraterrestrial Origin (UAP/UFO): Supporters of the alien hypothesis point to the object’s perfect symmetry, absence of seams or welds, and unusual flight behavior. Identical metallic spheres have been reported globally in recent years.
- Modified Drones Used by Cartels: Colombia has long struggled with powerful drug cartels that employ advanced drones for smuggling and surveillance. A spherical design could reduce radar detection and improve aerodynamics.
- Military Testing or Hoax/Marketing Stunt: Skeptics propose the object could be a prototype drone from a government program or even a cleverly staged viral marketing campaign.
As of now, Colombian authorities have issued no official statement, and the metallic sphere sighting of January 2026 continues to rack up millions of views and spark heated discussions in UFO and UAP communities around the world.
Whether this turns out to be evidence of something otherworldly or receives a mundane explanation, the mystery remains wide open. Stay tuned for updates!
