Weird isn't it? Pity it's not a bit bigger and jet black.

Must be a Mark 1 model. 2001 obviously included the newer, improved Mark 2.

Touch screen technology so simple even a monkey could use it.

Come to think of it wouldn't it have been a great model for a coffin for Arthur Clarke - jet black, standing vertically in some desert somewhere?

Now that big horn sheep have discovered pop rivets there will be no stopping them.
They'll be building aircraft and flying to greener pastures.

It look suspiciously like a vent stovepipe for an oven range.

It was put there by Kermit the frog

They found it has Rivets...Rivets...Rivets.

You're sounding like a Kiwi.

Could what happened in Greg Bear's novel The Forge of God end up coming to pass ?

I added a poll

Arthur would find this hilarious

It's been found. Origin still a mystery though

Utah monolith: Internet sleuths got there, but its origins are still a mystery

The metal monolith sits deep in a desert easy to get lost in, so officials did not reveal its location.

And now it's gone...
Utah desert monolith is gone

 

[Foxbat]

Maybe it’s buried on the moon...

 

[AE35Unit]

Oh if I'd been there I'd have been so tempted to don a gorilla suit and start waving a bone about...

 

[Dave]

I find it hard to believe that it was moved and none of all those people who have gone out there to look at it saw it taken. I guess we need a new Poll now on where it went to:

1. Aliens took it back
2. Artist removed it
3. Still there, but invisible
4. sandstorm covered it up

From that link it seems it was a prop from Westworld
