I for one welcome our new monolith-planting overlords. Edited 2020-11-30 to fix a broken imageSeriously, what do you think this is? To me it seems like a harebrained idea of some hippie "artist". From a helicopter, officers from the Utah Department of Public Safety spotted a large metal monolith — a single block of metal — last week. It was sitting in Utah's Red Rock Country in the southeast. Officials have no idea how or when it got there — or who might have placed it.

Why is everyone calling this thing a "monolith" when it has clearly visible screws or rivets and is therefore obviously not a single solid mass? ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) Anyway, my theory is that either abstract artists are getting lazier, or advertising is getting weirder (or both).

Yes, a lot of people are focusing on that. However, more interesting to me is that if you squint a bit, you can almost see a human face* in the rock to the right. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FQtfBBDq.jpg&t=665&c=yGvgSJULxnYd-w) * see an almost human face--- And for a bonus point, who can see this friendly face looming out of the rock? Clue: he appears to have a disgruntled monkey on top of his head. You'll have to go to the original image though, it's cropped out on mine. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FPCERFWu.png&t=665&c=-odQo8Kc_zgpww)

It is also not made of stone. Lithos = stone. Looks like a USB drive. Hopefully it's got an update to fix this COVID vulnerability.

If it's a USB drive, then it's got its head in the sand. Which means it may have the potential to protect us against the pandemic, but is unwilling to do anything to help. Which brings me back quite neatly to the Face of Trump. BTW - I hope I'm not offending anyone by combining imagery of Trump and Alien. I should make it clear that I am in no way suggesting that Trump erupted out of a space egg in the outer reaches of the solar system, and was carried back to Earth by an unwitting Sigourney Weaver, there to wreak untold destruction. Because that's certainly not true.

I think that's just your earthling engineering bias showing. Real advanced species make everything out of a single slab of metal stone and add fake screw heads just to mess with us.

Okay, let's do it. Let's start a thread. You go first, I'll reply. Let's see if we can keep it going for 5 years.

Oh my, can't believe that there are believers of flat earth in this forum ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) . When there are plenty of evidence that really contradict your theories yet, keep on believing that earth is flat -_- Haha, you still think space is real? The Earth is flat and stars are just painted on the canopy that NASA put there. Wake up man!
Okay, let's do it. Let's start a thread. You go first, I'll reply. Let's see if we can keep it going for 5 years. I'll be happy to observe, and have a laugh while reading your thread if this would happen.

Not only did NASA put up the canopy but they also traveled far back in time to do it. Rock paintings from prehistoric times and more modern paintings/drawings throughout history depicting the night sky prove it! ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

I still feel guilty about mentioning the five year anniversary. I feel like I'm partly responsible for bringing about the end of what is perhaps the finest work of literature in the history of human civilisation. Batman's final sentence of his final post was the perfect sign off, though.

Did they touch it already? Last time humans did, they learned how to craft and use tools ... If they find another one of these monoliths on the moon, they might wanna start a mission to Jupiter very soon

Clearly the monolith is in broad daylight which casts its UV rays upon the virus thus eradicating its very nature and we will activate our vitamin D which needs to be raised to 40000 IU per day to cancel out the effects of the globally constructed fake virus
