It's not clear how far or how high it can fly – or even how big it is and what makes it take off. But an aircraft created by scientists in Iran is, they claim, the world’s first flying saucer. Called the Zohal - or Saturn in English - it said the unmanned spaceship is designed for 'aerial imaging' but added it can be used for 'various missions'.

The hardline Fars news agency illustrated its story with a photo of a flying saucer, akin to one appearing in a 1950s Hollywood B-movie, hovering over an unidentified wooded landscape. The reports gave no indication of the spaceship’s size. But they indicated it was small by claiming, somewhat bizarrely, that it can also fly indoors.

Is it available at Toy’s R Us?
Someone really does need to put that guy in the pic. I wish I knew how to do it.
I can’t even remember his name right now but I sure can see him standing under the flying saucer.
Please insert just under the flying saucer. Thanks.
Pshaw. We want to see their flying carpet.
Who sez them Iranians don’t have a sense of humor?
Looks like the NASA - mudSlime outreach is working!
This is the first thing I thought of.
They also repainted all the great works of art. /sarcasm
Shhh...I have it of reliable sources that it is not anti-gravity......sequestered between the inner and outer skin of the saucer are carefully design and manufactured......(looking over my shoulder both ways)...flying carpets.
Yep, you heard me.....flying carpets.
Put that in you hookah and smoke it.
Maybe they’ll all fly to another planet.
“Maybe they’ll all fly to another planet.”
Tactically, not a good move. They haven’t killed all the infidels on this planet yet, leaving their rear exposed.
If they fail to do that prior to leaving....they know someone coming after them.
Okay, paranoid too.
Delightful.
Hey, that’s my light fixture and I want it back!
Yea I heard that too, genie told me..some of those flying carpets are really valuable..
Have you seen these morons praising their goat prophet?
No joke.
