A helicopter crew surveying bighorn sheep herds in Utah discovered a large metal column rising from the desert.
Captain's Log, Stardate, 11 18 2020 The crew of the Utah DPS helicopter traveled to southern Utah on a mission to count bighorns life forms with wildlife officers. He's like, Whoa, turn around, turn around And I was like, What he's like, There's this thing, this this thing back there, we got to go Look at it. The crew had spotted an object of unknown origin on the red surface. The intrepid explorers go down to investigate the, uh, alien life form. In the middle of the barren desert stood a mysterious metal monolith. I would say it's probably between 10 and 12 ft high were kind of joking around. That's one of us suddenly disappears. Then, uh, I guess the rest of us make a run for it. So pilot Brett Hutchins says it didn't look like it was dropped there. It was firmly planted into the ground like thinking. Okay, Is this something like NASA stuck up there or something? You know, where they bouncing satellites off it or something? It seemed less scientific and more artistic.

The similarity to the space movie was unmistakable, as was the bizarre effect it had on observers. It's just because it was kind of unusual stuff. The universe is filled with the unexplained and this journey to Southern Utah. Onley raised more questions as the crew headed home. They only wished they had the answers. Yeah, we've never have to admit that it's been about the strangest thing that I've come across out there, you know, years of flying.
