What started as a routine flyover suddenly took a turn after Utah officers stumbled upon a shiny, mysterious monolith in the middle of the desert

What started as routine wildlife assistance took an extraterrestrial turn for Utah's Department of Public Safety after officers stumbled upon a mysterious monolith in the middle of rural Utah.

"One of the biologists ... spotted it, and we just happened to fly directly over the top of it," pilot Bret Hutchings told And there it was -- in the middle of the red rock was a shiny, silver metal monolith sticking out of the ground. Hutchings guessed it was"between 10 and 12 feet high." It didn't look like it was randomly dropped to the ground, he told KSL, but rather it looked like it had been planted."We were kind of joking around that if one of us suddenly disappears, then the rest of us make a run for it," Hutchings said.

It's CNN folks Nothing to see just more fake news

Wow again...really . Find some new news

You’re really struggling for attention, aren’t you

Obviously it’s a portal for Big Foot...... sorry Daryl.

I can see the handwriting do green folks

From COVID 19 , now the mysterious monolith😅. Man planet 🌎 is not safe anymore. CIA knows about it for real CIA

It’s gone

Lies as usual, unfortunately we're the most advanced human specie at least around our planet, this is just marketing. Trying to distract people with bullshit for whats happening around the world. If they exist USA would be the last country to be contacted.

I'm just wondering if there are any signs off the monkeys?

Art Abandonment Project?

2001 A space oddessey?

What could that be

That's just silly.

It’s gone now. Keep up.

UFO or WTF

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

FakeNews.

c'mon CNN, it's gone already

It's probably Trump's ride out of here. They just need the orange one to phone home . . .

many things that can be explained, for example when a helecopter drops this column of 50 meters high board it in the ground yourself !! etc etc. no fuss !!!!!!!!!🤣

Careful Falcon the balloon boy is in there

Watch it turn out to be a prop from a cheesy sci-fi flick someone forgot to remove.

صباح الخير العالم دعم بنات العالم جنس الان

Thanks for spamming this 30 times a day.

Only CNN would play up a Monolith that has vanished.....🤣

CNN has been compromised. It is now in the hands of aliens, spreading the shiny-mysterious monolith religion.

Look at the animal face on the left side of the one in the dark blue..looks like a kinkajoo. (Think that’s what he’s called) baby dragon. Look around on the wall face.look on the ground, yes, you’ve found it. The whole thing looks, fake, well worn down area. ,

מה שהתחיל כמעוף שגרתי קיבל תפנית לפתע לאחר שקציני יוטה נקלעו למונוליט נוצץ ומסתורי באמצע המדבר

The occupants woke up, looked around and got the hell outta Dodge.

It’s gone again. This is why we can’t have nice things.

Here you go better journalism than you.

Dig the flicking thing up

Story seems fake

gone

It’s been found, location not disclosed, found and lost again. Think this is now officially out of the news cycle

TRUMP 2020 BABY

And now it's gone again.

My kind aren't sloppy.

HendrikSuarez mira brother

Man CNN loves this story. Spamming it non stop.

Don’t leave us hanging on this one. Let us know what the investigation turns up.

We need CNN to focus on this kind of story... unless they find a way to politicize it of course.

So, what is it Art work or aliens

Aliens put it there.

greghemphill96 That's where we left it! Great party, awesome tunes, memories I'll always cherish, don't suppose they found my wallet? Or my shoes? Shirt as well?

olang_moses Someone’s clearly trying to fuck with everyone else

I could be an artist I say just get some dna from the metal piece and see who last touched it

Chính tổng sức nặng của những kỷ luật ta tuân theo và phán đoán của ta sẽ dẫn ta tới hoặc sự thịnh vượng hoặc thất bại.

If that isn’t Twilight Zone Stuff, what is?

Are there mail in ballots in it? Are they all for Trump?

Maybe Paul from the movie Paul could answer your questions

It has a 2001: A Space Odyssey vibe about it

it's the answer to : How to squeeze sh* into the press

Did anyone find a misplaced trove of election fraud evidence there? Or Trump's missing adult-sized desk?

Waooow

Reminded of a Kubrick film... The Shining.

Middle Finger to Mentality

The Iranian corps will soon take revenge on its nuclear scientist from the United States and Israel. Shame on you, Mr. Biden

This was debunked already. Can twitter put a notice on this tweet? Some guys went up close and showed exactly what it is, and showed the saw marks in the concrete and the rivets in the metal. It doesn't even look that good close up, there are gaps in the 'monolith'

I told you guys I put that there, just leave it alone!!!

You have to take this piece by piece it shows but wide ears, huge head shaped like cartoon creature and rhpptge eye lid skin above the eye is shiny when the rest is dull. Look at the wall on the other side..look slowly. I’d be shocked if it it wasn’t film.

So, it’s illegal in UT. The Feds will take it from here. Grand.

Everything in life is mysterious and it depends on who discovered it. What a mysterious news

Not THAT much of a mystery, Cadillac Ranch has been around for a while Possibly just another eccentric who anonymously enjoys watching this while binging on popcorn Some ppl have too much time & money...

There’s much more than that , look at the shape of the rock mouth open, eyes open, nose, i think wings, look around I saw stairs, I also saw a wet mark on the ground where the boulders are it’s a straight line that leads to a crack between the boulders. .

That’s Donald trumpet 🎺

Hi fake media

leinova

Am I the only one that doesn’t think it’s wise for them to touch something like that found in 2020

Did they lick it? They need to lick it.

Banksy at it again ?

It's a space peanut!

I truly dont believe in none of the nonsense b.s

If these are not installations, then this is a resonator ... only this is a resonator of what ..

we very ignorants still in 2020 COVID19

Why are there so many corrupt officials in the CCP? 1. The CCP’s official position lasts for a lifetime. 2. The CCP directly appoints officials. 3. The officials lack supervision and transparency. 4. The channels for reporting corruption are vague and single.

A normal sized art installation? HELP!!!!

Let the conspiracy theory comment reign.. Lol.

👽🌎🖖

Not man-made at all!

I really want a material analysis of this thing to be made public

Just trace the screw's and stainless steel grade. Don't worry it was made on our beautiful sunny planet.

NoonanTweets we need answers

Might be a robot penis. Don't touch it!

Its not art, its aliens

This is NOT the year for this... or maybe it is? Idek at this point 😭

not enough people appreciate how difficult it is to stay awake long enough to find a monolith after counting all those sheep.

stargate

They are going to find David Blaine inside. Just wait.

We are not alone in the universe 😂

Lol vialanx

It’s an art piece someone put there. Not that mysterious

Pretty desolate area

It's a fail safe in case Trump got re-elected.

Paranoia mode on!

They better leave that alien antenna alone 🤣🤣

So were are the apes?

Where have I seen this before?....

Hmmmm

Imagine what’s under it

CalvinAyre outside earth man

So weird. Found a similar one in my bedroom the other day. Can’t explain it:

Y’all freaking out over a file cabinet?

Aliens never gave a forwarding address so this littering fine is unlikely to be paid.

What if this is a solution to the Byron Preiss mystery or one of the others like it?

Bet some bored rich dude is laughing his ass off right now.

New wave 😂

Alliens?

Please don't touch it, this is not the year.

fredo_ffm Or a well made CGI.

And they’re touching it... sigh 😔

Just leave it alone this year is not the year to fuck with that thing

It’s Welsh.

Publicity stunt by some artist

Speaking of UFOs ... Well, they've already planted a metal monolith in the Utah desert ... Nice setup ... Who benefits?

Whaaaaaaat?

I’m here for this! 2001

'Good luck with that! Let's bounce, Scully!'

Someone knows something.

Where's HAL 9000 when you need him?

S. H. I. E. L. D. I hope you ain't sleeping.

must be an homage to 2001 a SO

What is the ground like there? How easy to dig?

People do have a sense of humor

STARWARS SITUATION

Timely cartoon: they’re here already

Someone's trolling 2001 Space Odyssey....

obvious prank

Not disclosing area because its dangerous, yet someone actually got the 12 foot metal object there without a hitch.

Beam me up Scotty... hardhouz13 zaptrapped SGNSV_

'New Wave artist'

J_Bart87 Alien Christopher Columbus has found us and we're all doomed. Throw out your Covid-19 blanket.

lol is it your channel... plz leave it for us like dat

Art? You think it's art as we scream up on the end of 2020? Art....that at minimum must weight several hundred pounds. Art....in a area remote enough visitors are prohibited because many would need rescuing.

It's obviously another gateway to the phantom zone, guys.

It has tiny drill holes on the sides, it's man-made but thanks for trying to be interesting.

Trump Tower 2001

No, no. That has to go. Remove it. We can not have that in Utah. Melt it. Destroy it. IDC. Just get it out of there.

Just leave it!

Check this out

Remember when Marvel's Agents of SHIELD brought in the monolith? Yeah, be careful out there folks...

Cthulhu!!

Just leave it be!

NO

It means the State of Nevada has only so much time left before they get themselves 'evicted'.

Democrats will tear it down.

It's not strange when you know a person did it to cause wonder. Sorry, there's nothing to wonder. It's pretty pathetic. Oh, and almost everybody knows it's '2001' related, it's not even an original prank. The mystery just isn't there, buddy.

2020 A Space Odyssey. We've all seen the original, so whatever you do, don't go outside the spacecraft to make repairs. Send Hal.

Clearly its part of the 5th element.

🤔 Intriguing!

“My God. It’s full of stars. “

Is 2020. Anything can happen 🤷‍♀️

looks like transformers pillars which was used by aliens to destroy the human world. lol.

Looks like a vortex between other worlds a possible time machine! 🤔😉

.. 😘💅? 🛸👽🙄however you voted EveryVoteCounts 😘👀🤩🤩🤩✨🌟

Booga-booga!

Call Stanley. He know. He made a film about it.

RegulationGuy Worlds fake LFG

Just leave it alone, this is not the year! 😭

I live for stuff like this, I have no idea why.

Dig under it there may be buried treasure

Hm. Kinda like 2001: A Space Odyssey

I've seen this movie. Don't trust Hal.

Cut it open, i know a few metal sculpture artists who put things inside their pieces. Physical time stamps, if you will. And possibly their name. Or, 'if found, return to: '

Hey guys, I hooked up my Minecraft game to my 3D printer. So far.. nothing.
