Mysterious sphere appears on Japanese beach

[Eldorado]

Police and residents in a Japanese coastal town have been left baffled by a large iron ball that has washed up on a local beach, with authorities admitting they have no idea what it is – only that it isn’t about to explode. The sphere, measuring about 1.5 metres in diameter, has been at the centre of fevered speculation since it washed up on Enshu beach in the city of Hamamatsu on the country’s Pacific coast, local media reports said.

The Chinese Trojan ball? It's hollow. There are probably the two Chinese spies sitting inside the ball

Maybe a old ww2 artifact, one of those submerged obstacle against US submarines around some of their islands that has drifted away?

How does an iron ball wash up on the beach? That thing must weigh a ton.

People, it's obviously a Godzilla Egg.

Either a buoy off of a submarine net or a torpedo net.

Can it be a globe of the moon Io?

It's just a mooring buoy, used to moor large craft. Being Japan is an island in the Pacific, I'm a little surprised they didn't immediately recognize it.
If it was found in Kansas, then I could understand some head-scratching.
