Mysterious monolith discovered in Nevada sparks alien theories

It looks as if it came from another world. Its surface perfectly reflects the vast desert landscape surrounding the mountain peak where it was found. Where does this object come from?

The structure was noticed by the Las Vegas Police Department, which claims it saw it during a search and rescue mission north of the Las Vegas Valley.

We see a lot of weird things when people go hiking like not being prepared for the weather, not bringing enough water... but check this out! - the police officers wrote on social media.

This is the latest in a series of mysterious, shiny columns worldwide since at least 2020. In November of that year, a similar metal monolith was found in a landscape straight out of Mars—in the red, rocky Utah desert. Then, there were reports of other such objects in Romania, on the Isle of Wight in the English Channel, in central California, and on the famous Fremont Street in downtown Las Vegas. All disappeared as quickly as they appeared.

As one might expect, speculation about who might be behind these enigmatic structures is growing. No one has come forward or claimed to have created them, but there have even been conspiracy theories regarding aliens. Kubrick's 1968 film depicted one of the most striking and bizarre forms aliens have taken on screen—the mysterious black block.

Euro News wonders if the suddenly appearing monolith is an actual form of aliens and signals their presence. They explain their conjectures by saying that the high column in the science fiction classic serves as a warning.

The Las Vegas monolith represents everything unimaginable and unknown. Euro News suggests it may be an element of a sophisticated marketing campaign for the upcoming reboot of "The X-Files."
