Following intense storms that tore through the area last week, a mysterious eyeball-shaped dome—later identified as military-grade equipment—crash into an Indianapolis neighborhood. V2X, a defense and aerospace contractor with connections to the government, was found to be the owner of the weatherproof dome, which was built to safeguard sensitive defense technology. In their communities, Americans are seeing more and more unexplained phenomena and government machinery, but officials are giving them few explanations.
Military Technology Lands in Residential Area
Residents of an eastside Indianapolis neighborhood were shocked when a large white dome suddenly appeared on their street following powerful storms. The mysterious object, which landed near the intersection of 19th Street and North Pasadena Street, quickly transformed the quiet neighborhood into an impromptu tourist attraction as curious onlookers gathered to examine the unusual debris.
The spaceship has landed?… Actually, @SeanAshWX has a simpler explanation for this situation near 21st and Arlington here in Indy.

Local homeowner Sandy Jones described the incident’s startling nature to local media. “It had to be high enough to go over the house, and just boom! That’s what it sounded like. It sounded like a big bomb, almost. I thought it was thunder. The rain was coming down,” Jones told reporters.
Defense Contractor Claims Ownership
The dome was eventually identified as a “radome” – a weatherproof enclosure designed to protect radar equipment and antennas from the elements. Andrew Belush, an employee of V2X Technology, confirmed to local media that the dome belonged to the defense company, whose facility is located approximately one mile from where the object landed.

V2X is a significant government contractor that provides mission-critical solutions for the defense, aerospace, and security sectors. Despite confirming ownership of the equipment, company representatives appeared confused about how their specialized military equipment traveled such a distance during the storm, raising questions about the security of defense assets.
Pattern of Unexplained Incidents
This incident follows other recent unexplained phenomena across American communities, including unusual drone sightings over New Jersey in 2024 and mysterious black tar balls washing ashore in Florida earlier this year. The federal government has provided limited transparency about these events, leaving citizens to wonder what other military or surveillance equipment might be operating near their homes.
“I think it probably got turned over and caught in the wind, and unfortunately, it flew away. We’re really thankful no one got hurt or anything. No one got injured. But that’s what it is, I can confirm it’s not an alien satellite or an alien spaceship,” said Belush, seemingly dismissing concerns about the incident.
Residents expressed surprise at finding military equipment in their residential area without warning or explanation. “Nothing like this strange pod thing,” remarked Kirby Jarvis, a local resident who experienced a power outage during the same storm that delivered the dome to his neighborhood.
The radome was removed from the neighborhood Wednesday night, but many questions remain unanswered. The scuffed dome with its partially open side hatch presented a stark visual of how severe weather events can unexpectedly bring government and military equipment into civilian areas, highlighting the sometimes thin line between defense operations and everyday American life.
