November 24, 20205 yr Nahh.. Man made... notice the reflective characteristic... The "true" one would show no reflections from any direction / distance... like in some flight simulators...🤓 Flying gliders since 1980 Flightsimming since 1992 AMD Ryzen 5600x, 32GB RAM, GPU Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti 8 GB, 1 TB and 500 GB nvme2 SSD drives, HP 27" 60Hz LED monitor @ 1920x1080, T16000, Hotas from old X52 Pro, Saitek Combat Rudder Pro (2010 model)
November 24, 20205 yr How much do you bet that the guys who found it were the ones who put it there? The authorities aren't revealing the location for public safety. So of course, 1001 conspiracy theories will now be invented. How long do we think it will take? Expect Alex Jones to arrive in a week or two with shape shifting alien reptiles responsible.

November 24, 20205 yr The truth is out there... They should go back there with some tools - hammer, magnet (is it steel?) pick axe, shovels investigate the ground see how it's shoved in there... Portable angle grinder, cutting torch - if someone put it there as a piece of art, that should soon bring the artist running Mark Robinson Part-time Ferroequinologist Author of FLIGHT: A near-future short story (ebook available on amazon) I made the baby cry - A2A Simulations L-049 Constellation Sky Simulations MD-11 V2.2 Pilot. The best "lite" MD-11 money can buy (well, it's not freeware!)
November 24, 20205 yr I really hope it is an alien artifact, I was hoping to get down there with some fellow hairless apes, beat each other up with thigh bones, and then cast those bones high into the air. Hang on, that would make a great science fiction movie. 😲

November 26, 20205 yr This is disappointing. If you look closely you can see its held together with screws. Don't think super advanced aliens capable of traveling thousands of light years at relativistic speeds, or from another dimension, would be using screws and screw drivers. 😞 Clearly the Nimitz tic tac aliens didn't leave it there then.
November 26, 20205 yr You're right (as always). I think it was during the Terminator series that we learned that aliens don't screw.
