'Crashed UFO' in Africa debunked as award-winning architect slams alien conspiracy

dailystar.co.uk:

alien conspiracy theorists for claiming the structure is an 'abandoned space craft.'Krynauw Nel reached out to the Daily Star after self-professed ET expert, Scott C.

Waring claimed he found a UFO in South Africa that he believed had been ditched by an alien who was now living among humans.

The Director of Krynauw Nel Associates Architects in Johannesburg, Gauteng, explained that the structure was actually built to protect a cave containing fossils that date back millions of years.

He explained: "Some years ago I designed a structure to cover an important cave, but the building was designed to be removed in the future."Fragments of bones of the hominem species Austrolopethicus sediba was discovered in a cave in this remote area by palaeontologist extraordinaire Prof Lee Berger and his son. "We were tasked to design a cover to the cave both to protect the fossils being unearthed and to protect the scientists doing the excavations. "This species that lived here some 1.98 million years ago, is one of the most valuable discoveries in solving “the missing link” between Homo sapiens and our sister species still alive today "In order not to do damage to the pristine environment and to the site, we designed an insect-like structure that hides amongst the trees surrounding the cave."Its eight movable legs are pinned to dolomite rock so that once the building has served its purpose, it can be removed and less than an A4 Page of damage will have been incurred to the site."This has now been picked up as a possibly abandoned UFO.
