The MILLENNIUM FALCON Spotted… on the Moon?

Every now and then a crazy UFO story hits the interwebs, typically with irrefutable ‘evidence’ about the existence of UFO’s whilst sounding like a pile of crap. When we’re lucky, these sightings or incidents end up getting linked to pop culture; a few years ago NASA discovered something in space which strongly resembled the crack in space and time featured during Doctor Who Series 5. This one unfortunately wasn’t spotted by NASA, however it’s still just as hilarious and awesome.

It appears as if the Millennium Falcon is parked on the moon.

The Daily Mirror has this story, citing UFO Hunters Daily as their source (I can’t find their website, buuuttt… we’ll go with it). They seem pretty notorious for spotting giant spaceships (and Martian women) zipping around up there, and now they’ve ‘discovered’ another. Scott C. Waring, the ‘Chief UFO Hunter,’ said that there is “no dust, no dirt on this metallic structure and it does look like its probably a very large ship,” adding that it’s around 590-450m wide. Check it out for yourself…

Okay, that doesn’t even look like the Falcon.

The epitome of disappointment.

“Of course NASA knows about the structures and thousands of others, but the thing is, does NASA know if these ships and structures are being occupied? If this technology was abandoned, then it would be very easy to put a mission together to explore these structures and if possible, live in them. Why build a moon base, when there are already many there waiting for us?”

Fortunately, they’re clearly not trying to argue that this mysterious craft actually resembles the Millennium Falcon in real life. As much as I would love to believe it’s really a UFO, I’m pretty sure it’s not, since that’s generally how these things go. Plus, Han and Chewie would be stupid to come up to Earth – our solar system sucks. Their galaxy far, far away is way more interesting because of the amount of intelligent life present. We’ve got one stinkin’ rock, and I wouldn’t exactly say the life here is intelligent. Better off trying your luck back on Corellia, guys.
