UFO near sun may be evidence of Type II alien civilization..

Good point. An asteroid perhaps...

But there are two things that raise flags for me that this isn't a Type II Alien Civilization spacecraft..

First, the size.

Either a Moon sized object or as that other article mentions, an Earth sized object...imagine the dynamics behind that technology. Or...they've constructed a third Death Star...

Second, it's backed by Russian scientists...

Sure it is. But as always, no one knows who they are...

An asteroid, a comet, a camera glitch...perhaps. But why jump the gun to conclude that it's a Type II Alien spacecraft?

Cha...ching...More exotic to sell to exopolitic gatherings.. Just my opinion, of course...
