Alien trail? A mysterious metal pillar appears in the wilderness of the United States.
Desert in Utah, western U.S. on the 18th. State officials conducting environmental surveys in helicopters found an unexpected object flashing in the middle of the wilderness. Upon landing nearby, the object was a 3.6-meter-high triangular pillar and was made of smooth metal. So far, speculation is rampant on social media as it has not been revealed what the pillar is and who has brought it this far, AFP and the Associated Press reported on the 24th. When the officials landed nearby, the pillar was fixed to the floor. However, there were no footprints or car wheel tracks left around, so it was hard to know who or how they were installed. Authorities have decided not to disclose the exact location of the pillar. This is out of concern that people may come to the desert to see the pillars and get lost.
