Episode 1 - 'Darndest Thing I Ever Saw'

In 1974 a metal sphere was discovered on a prominent family’s property in Jacksonville, Florida. What at first was a mere curiosity soon seemed more otherworldly as, witnesses say, it rolled around on its own. A media frenzy erupted as the ball sparked interest from the Navy and nationally renowned scientists. The obsession with the mysterious ball ultimately silenced the family.
