Bright, fast moving ball-shaped object caught on video during a thunder storm over US navy base in Yokosuka City, Japan, 7 July 2021

Japanese YouTuber "いろいろやってみる、ぶぐがんす" has posted a video showing a bright ball-like object moving erratically during a thunderstorm over a US navy base in Yokosuka City, Japan, on 7 July 2021.

 

The witness says "I happened to discover a UFO while shooting thunder ⁉︎ I think it's real!" 

They continue "It looks like it is flying at a fairly high speed while shining. The navigation light is not blinking because it is not an airplane or helicopter."

The object in question appears after about 1 minute, 20 seconds into the video;


Analysis

It is probably not a coincidence that this object appears during a thunderstorm - that is a clue. It is highly likely that this is a video of the very rare phenomenon of ball lightning.

From wikipedia, "Ball lightning is an unexplained phenomenon described as luminescent, spherical objects that vary from pea-sized to several meters in diameter. Though usually associated with thunderstorms, ball lightnings are said to last considerably longer than the split-second flash of a lightning bolt, and are a distinct phenomenon from St. Elmo's fire

Conclusion - Probably Ball Lightning
