Pretty large leap calling it a “craft”.

I don’t believe a word of the story.

I can’t say as I see any heat from the re-entry from space. Interesting none the less.

It’s a pressure vessel or an accumulator from a spacecraft or aircraft.

You can see melted metal where the lines to and from it melted from the fittings, which are the bumps on each side.

It does not look like one of ours.

14” diameter metal sphere leaving a 12” deep crater means this thing was only 100 feet high at best. Cannon?
