The stunning UFO footage below was seen around a month ago by multiple witnesses on 23 November at around 11:30pm. This UFO sighting took place in the locale of the regional city of Izumi, in Kagoshima Prefecture on Kyushu Island at the southernmost tip of Japan.


The witnesses, a group of friends, had gone out for the night and were returning home when they saw what they described as a 'beautiful glittering emerald' in the sky. The shimmering UFO was moving erratically and the witnesses felt that it did not resemble any man-made craft. One of the witnesses was able to capture the image for over a minute using a video recorder. The object eventually vanished.

'I have no idea what this beautiful emerald object was. Could it be a UFO or magical celestial body?' asked one of the witnesses.

UFO sightings are a common occurrence in Japan but are rarely reported due to fear of ridicule by those who witness the events, despite Japanese society generally having an open-minded attitude to the idea of alien visitors.
