Metallic Sphere Hovers Silently Over Yerevan in 1987
On a clear day in 1987 residents of Yerevan Armenia observed a large metallic sphere hovering motionless above the city skyline.
Multiple eyewitnesses including local workers and passersby described the object as perfectly spherical with a reflective surface that glinted in the sunlight.
The sphere remained stationary for several minutes before ascending rapidly and disappearing from view.
Some witnesses managed to capture photographs showing the anomalous craft against the urban backdrop.
No radar contacts were reported by authorities and the Armenian Soviet authorities at the time offered no public comment.
The incident remains one of the better documented sphere shaped UFO cases from the late Soviet era with consistent descriptions across independent observers.
