Void Sphere
Metallic orb covered in indecipherable hieroglyphs
Overview
This enigmatic metallic sphere, discovered floating in the void between galaxies, defies conventional physics. Its surface is covered in hieroglyphic script that shifts and changes when observed, suggesting quantum-level inscription technology. The sphere maintains a constant temperature regardless of external conditions and produces no detectable radiation beyond a faint gravitational anomaly.
Discovery & Origin
The Void Sphere was recovered by the deep-space research vessel Horizon in 2021 during a mapping expedition of intergalactic space. It was found suspended in absolute emptiness, with no nearby stellar objects within 50 light-years. The sphere appeared to be maintaining a precise orbital path around a point in empty space, suggesting it was circling an invisible object or following pre-programmed coordinates from an ancient navigation system.
Scientific Analysis
Composition analysis reveals the sphere is made of an alloy not found in nature, with a molecular structure that appears crystalline yet flows like liquid at the quantum level. The hieroglyphs emit faint quantum signatures that may represent stored information or active communication attempts.
