This confirms that screws and bolts were invented by aliens.

Only an alien hell-bent on retribution against humanity would invent the slotted screwhead.

The Robertson was superior in all ways but no! The Alien Conspiracy got to them!

Are they sure it's not a lost prop used in 2001 A Space Odyssey?

So these guys just walked right up to it? How nervous do you think the first guy to reach out and touch it was?

Best part:

UPDATED 11/24/20: Official Statement from the Bureau of Land Management: “Although we can’t comment on active investigations, the Bureau of Land Management would like to remind public land visitors that using, occupying, or developing the public lands or their resources without a required authorization is illegal, no matter what planet you are from.”

Probably some weird cult put it there for ceremonial purposes. There seems to be no shortage of cults these days.

The guy with the big hair from TLC must be going absolutely nuts right now.

It's almost like performance art isn't actually a thing!

[undercoverbrother]

I honestly never thought anyone would find it......

One theory I've read about the Monolith in 2001 is that the Monolith is the same dimensions as a movie screen, and that the movie is really a metaphor about film making.

Personally, I think the movie was a contemplation on the nature of intelligence.

Like the first guy to bungee jump.

Alien monolith mysteriously appears in the desert, then disappears, next to mysteriously appear and then disappear on Ebay or craigslist.

When I first heard this story I wondered if the film was shot there and it was just left behind all those years ago.

Anyone else read "Department of Player Safety" in the title? And then immediately thought of this:

Excellent. Now conspiracy theories can be combined: it was brought down by socialist aliens and held all the uncounted trump votes from across the country.

Now one has show up in Romania randomly apparently.

If they are even connected in any way, this is clearly performance art and most likely done to be a viral internet hit for social media hits. This is pure Tiktok, YouTube and podcast material, and nothing else.
