Highly Strange

In February 1803, a group of Japanese fisherman came across something strange on their shores - an odd, round boat carrying an even more odd passenger. Was this bizarre passenger a visitor from another world, or did they meet someone from somewhere slightly closer to home?
Join us this week as we delve into Japan's ancient alien story, as well as look at some mysterious artwork that can only be appreciated by a Greek man in a brown suit.
