Should We Be Looking for The Fifth Element?

Should We Be Looking for The Fifth Element?

I’m sure you have seen social media the last few weeks and the weird photos of alleged monoliths appearing in a Utah desert and a remote area of Romania. If not, let me catch you up.

In mid November, a large object was discovered in a Utah desert. This monolith was metal and somewhere between 10 and 12 feet tall. A group of biologists who were counting bighorn sheep are the ones who discovered it. The photos of it went viral and it disappeared from the desert shortly after.

Yesterday, a similar monolith appeared on the other side of the world in Romania. Which considering that one appeared a day or so after the one in Utah DISAPPEARED, conspiracy theorists are going crazy over the how and why and where did it come from.

I was just reading a piece from Desert News and they seem to think the one in Utah was planted on purpose by humans, not aliens, sorry to say.  But what about the one in Romania? According to a write up in BGR, the monolith in Romania is a poorly constructed wanna be. But it too, has already disappeared.

Whether human or other worldly remains a mystery. Personally the first thing that comes to my mind is that if two more of these monoliths appear somewhere, I’m gonna start looking for flying cabs piloted by Bruce Willis and will quickly apply for my Multipass!
