Ball lightning, swamp gas, Mogul balloon, lens flare, lenticular cloud, the planet Venus, insect close to camera, pelican, or "You never saw it, these smoking-gun photos don't exist, and you are never to speak of it to anyone."
Because then I would be saying that it is a UFO.

Maybe it's a great big government "who gives a f*** anymore?" Maybe they all thought - "you know... it's Vegas. Everyone is just going to think we are on our way to Hollywood. Lets just get this beast out now and get home for dinner. I don't feel like babysitting it all day and toting it all night."
Plus... again... it's Vegas. It's the same during the day or night... everyone is awake.

A c- band sat from the 1980's isn't even close to the size of the one on the truck bed. I know, when i was a kid i used to help my father work on them. Plus it would have a pointed weird top so no, now two dishes up against each other sounds about right but most likely it's a prop that sold for a lot of money and was escorted down the freeway by cops. Ps there looks to be damage on one side the left is a little concave on the top.
probably, I was just throwing out a theory i know a bunch of other people said the same thing but hell its an awesome pic anyway.

The police escort (along wiith the private escort pickup/SUV? that can also be seen) is probably due to the fact the load is so wide, not because the cargo is particularly valuable.

Having served for 20 years in the military with a secret clearance and my specialty included transporting classified material on public highways,I can assure you this is not a classified object.
It was being hauled in broad daylight for one.
We use to do our moves late at night when very few people were up and about.
The authorities would block all on ramps on the freeways we took until we had transited through the area.
There would be a rolling road block behind us and in front of us also.
Did it many times.
A few times there were bright lights on the vehicle facing outwards so you could not even make out clearly what was being transported.
People would be amazed what was transported late at night when most people are sleeping.
What I see from the sheer size and shape looks to be a industrial impeller possibly for a hydroelectric dam.
They do wear out and have to be replaced when they do.

My Guess is tilted that way effectively narrows the load.
I think the value of this thread responds to the claim that the PTB could not keep the UFO subject secret.
Lets just say for one moment that this was a real UFO being transported in broad daylight in the public view. They not only got away with it they kept the cost of transport to a minimum.
So yes they could keep something this big a secret and we have been conditioned to be part of the cover up without even knowing.
