It started out as a routine mission, but soon turned into a separate mystery adventure like sci-fi movies. An aviator from the Utah Department of Public Safety discovered a metal monolith … right in the middle of nowhere.
On Wednesday, officers were flying over the desert area to monitor local wildlife, when something caught their eye. And it would have been difficult to pass such a thing carelessly. The metallic object immediately stood out against the opaque, monochromatic background.
“One of the biologists saw it (without object). We were flying over it,” pilot Bret Hutchings told CNN. “Said: Come back, come back! and I didn’t understand why. Said: There’s something there, we need to take a look. ”
And right there, in the middle of the desert, among the red rocks, they discovered a shiny metallic monolith. Hutchings calculated that it was “10 to 12 feet tall” (about 3 feet tall). “It didn’t look like it was randomly thrown to the ground,” he added.
“I also made jokes. We have established that the others must flee immediately if one of us suddenly disappears.” Despite the humor surrounding the alien universe, officials say they were not afraid. They thought of a rational explanation. For example, the mysterious monolith could have been the work of an artist. Perhaps even a big fan of the movie “2001: A Space Odyssey” (1968), thinks Hutchings, referring to a scene similar to the one they encountered during the mission.
Art or not, the law does not forgive. Placing such an object on public land without permission is illegal, “no matter what planet you come from,” the Utah Department of Public Safety said in a statement. The Bureau of Land Management will decide if further investigation is required.
