Gotta love mysterious space junk! Australia's coasts seem to be getting all the fun oddities lately.

Don't tell me it's car-sized unless it's car-shaped. Or at least park a car next to it for scale.

Ngl I did a little digging before posting this to find any article with an image and I was bummed that somehow this was one of the only still images they seemed to have of the thing, and not even a car or bike for scale!

Oh I know. I find it amusing. Once I heard a meteor described as "the size of a pork roll sandwich".

Missed the opportunity of rekindling the ol' boulder post in calling it a "large metal object the size of a small metal object. "
