Mysterious Metal Monolith Missing in Utah Desert

[Moonlight 645]

Laugh now Earthlings.

It's the top of the Mormon spaceship the Nauvoo.  They ran out of headroom in their underground bunker/shipyard and had to stick the bowspirit up thru the ground.

From the videos, it looks like you can make out the remnants of a campfire.  So you just know people have been camped out there tripping balls staring at that thing.

Someone didn't want the increased traffic this thing was going to bring there.  [cue music] ...but who??

As bad as 2020 has been...this monolith may have been a top 10 non-covid/politics related "story" for the year.

As bad as that movie was, Travolta explaining that they had to be careful with the nuclear weapon was later ripped off in Armageddon when rock hound was riding a nuke like a mechanical bull and had to be similarly reprimanded not to ride the nuclear weapon. It seemed like such a strange thing for two blockbuster movies released at similar times and to the same basic demographic. 

I recreated that scene when a buddy and I has the replace a hot water heater tank in my house a few years back.  It was some of my best work.

At first it sounded like a plot twist from a science-fiction novel by Philip K. Dick.

It's the classic "professional photographer witnesses moment in history but fails to take a picture of it" trope.

This is starting to feel like Banksy but doesn’t quite fit.
