If there was an object as bog as earth that close to saturn especially it's rings, you'd see a gravitational pull of the rings and you'd see saturn
move out of its orbit due to the gravitational effects of this earth sized mass...
They're a fake. Or else these craft have some means of cancelling thier gravitational effects on other objects...
There are several presumptions in the above statement. First, you presume to understand gravity well enough to understand the interactions an alien
borne craft would have with our local matter. For that matter, you presume that the composition of their matter would exert a gravitational force
based on the presumption that the currently held views of the gravity/matter relationship are accurate.
Further, as our good friend Zorgon has pointed out, there is a presumption of the technology being used to transport and sustain the alleged craft.

That object look perpendicular to the rings, making me believe it's either a graphical or technical error, or some other natural object. Perhaps a
small section of another ring? Besides, being that the object follow the rings in shape, it would mean that it's a huge (hundreds of miles long)
curved object, with the same thickness of the rings.
Odd shape to make a spaceship.
What if the ship were capable, or required, the bending of its "hull" to accomodate energy and spatial fluctuations?
Even better, what if it were built "straight" and properly, but the distortion of space in the area to due higher dimensional physics created the
illusion of curvature?
I am not sure i would label any "spaceship" odd, simply because my experience with them is entirely anecdotal and rife with CGI created "proof".
I may be surprised to find them shaped like a Ford model bumper bracket....but i don't think it would really be odd. But i get your point.
