An attempt at a viral marketing campaign for the movie Battleship?

I'm pretty sure I've seen this image circulate the Digg/Reddit cycle a few months ago referring to the Millennium Falcon being found.

That's amusing - I just logged on to post a comment to the effect of 'that thing looks just like the Millenium Falcon.'

It would be nice if they provided just a little more information. Maybe a sense of the scale?

Sense of scale? It's very obvious to me, the scale shows 300 m. I would say the object is 40x40 m.

Millenium Falcon. Perhaps it was hidden from George Lucas.

Strange that this comment is being down voted. This was also the first thing I thought of.

Because humor is not launching, I guess.

Mee to! In fact I believe everyone will want to see that. ;D

Haha! I was thinking the exact same thing.

lmao I thought the same thing

and yet, all pages i see mention swedish tabloids reporting it. no mention of real news outlets.

didn't boter to click this as I've clicked several other links elsewhere.
