I think he was talking about this:



More a monolump than a monolith.

pfft! Buzz Aldrin... we want to know what Neil Armstrong knows!

[garlandgreen]

Can we collect this monolith and send it to the middle east. It services are badly needed there

[Catalpa]

I'm Gobsmacked by this!

So long as this isn't some kind of weird optical effect then that is truly stunning.

Its just so out of kilter with the surrounding landscape that it does strike one as being most odd...

We should send Arnie to investigate this Vista with all Hasta...

remember Buzz, it's the Earth's moon you walked on, not a moon of Mars.
