Crashed Spacecraft in Oklahoma


From the archives - 2012

Years back a cement truck overturned on this Oklahoma country road.  The cement hardened and at the time they were able to remove everything but the mixer.  Local artists got a bright idea and here it remains to this day.  Yep, we travel the country in search of oddities like this.


You can see the addition of hoses and funnel cones for the "thrusters".



Well done I say.

Great idea. But still I prefer to get rid of rubbish along the road but understand that the concrete was a to heavy problem for a preferable solution.
