Is Monolith From Utah and Now Nevada Supposed to Inspire?
Monolith First Found in Utah Has Made Another Appearance in Nevada
In 2020 a 12-foot stainless steel monolith was found by a helicopter crew in a Utah canyon. It was in a place that was not easy to get to without a helicopter. Nine days later the monolith disappeared.
Since then, similar monoliths have shown up in wilderness locations of Romania, California, New Mexico and Wales. The latest was found near Gass Peak north of Las Vegas in Nevada. A man hiking recently ran across the structure and took a picture.
Do these Monoliths Have Something to do with a Movie?
An article by Vox says they are done for art. They look like the monoliths that were in Stanley Kubrick’s move 2001: A Space Odyssey. Those in the movie were black monoliths and were placed there by aliens who were trying to guide humankind to further stages of evolution.
In one scene in the movie, some apes see the black monolith and are scared by it, but then get fascinated and study it closely. This happens at different times in the movie and the monolith opens up a gate to other worlds.
What are they Trying to Accomplish?
Whoever is placing these monoliths may be trying to say something similar. That we need to evolve more as a species. Perhaps they want to inspire us to believe in aliens as well. It would be interesting to know if the people behind it are serious or just having fun and whether it is one group or many.
