I hate myself. But maybe I can learn to love myself. Maybe it's okay for me to be here! That's right! I'm me, nothing more, nothing less! I'm me. I want to be me! I want to be here! And it's okay for me to be here! -- Shinji Ikari, Neon Genesis Evangelion
Yes, I know. You thought it would be something about Asuka. You're such idiots.

The technology for this has been around for a while, the same basic principle is being used (or rather, a lot of calculation is done to avoid it happening) during live concerts when there are areas where the sound from two speakers almost completely cancels itself out; the same is done here, but in a way that the sound is only audile in that small area. It is certainly impressive, but by nature of the technology will never replace headphones, as it requires a fixed installation and you to be in the area of effect, it doesn't work on the go

Another big question, why didn't they just simply dig around or under it? They had the energy to look over it, but not for what's beneath it. Probably another underground base for stocking aliens and cat girls like area 51. They sure love to make these bases underneath the bone dry deserts.

And now it's vanished again. Has anyone checked the lunar crater Tycho recently for magnetic anomalies under its surface?

Not only humans, but animals do have touching and heartwarming moments which, sometimes, can be comparatively wholesome than ours.

Either it's copycats, or some kind of marketing campaign.

Either it's a marketing campaign for 2021: A Space Oddyssey - not the intentional misspelling :wink: or somebody's planning the Human Instrumentality Project.

3rd one gets demolished and replaced by a cross as "alien overlords are not welcome".

4th appeares in Texas, which is wooden and silver painted.

Whomever are doing these and whatever their goal is, they're failing ludicrously. Kinda disappointing.
