Moonbeam's Flying Saucer

Moonbeam's roadside-attraction Flying Saucer located off of Highway 11 North in the Village of Moonbeam in the Township of Moonbeam in the District of Cochrane in Northeastern Ontario Canada

 

To modern ears this sounds suspiciously extraterrestrial, though some people assert the pioneers were probably seeing the Northern Lights. The alien rumors were bolstered when in the 1960s and ’70s there was a wave of UFO sightings in the area, coupled with a series of mysterious crop circles. Regardless of the truth, the name stuck, and Moonbeam has fully adopted the alien as its mascot.
