My God, It’s Full Of… Clouds?

Thursday, 28th July 2005 by Alex

An alien monolith perhaps? Or just some rather interesting stitching? Pretty cool looking though :-)

    Looks like the first time they took the picture part of it had clouds.. and they retook it again.

    If you look close you can see the alignment edges around the new area.

    I’m completely operational, and all my circuits are functioning perfectly. I know this object. It is known as “the monolith” and its dimensions are 1:4:9.

    What is that sea serpent??

  10. 10. JP says:

    That sea serpent is a boat leaving a wake in its trail. There is an amazing shot of one on Lake Powell somewhere, but I cannot find it at the moment.

    The Govinator and HAL 9000 are right!

    and that is my church! we need to go there! all together from my hands!

    just top the north of woowooo’s bridge it looks like they made a bit of a mistake with the road and decided against taking the short cut instead cutting the road through an enormous diversion north and round the canyons! except that they left a couple of miles of dead end road!!!
