It is well known that piles of mud and stingrays can both be found in water.
It is an unreasonable leap to go from, "It looked like mud and it was a stingray; it looks like a rock so it's a spaceship."
It is an interesting shape, and when flights to the moon are commonplace and cheap, it will be worth getting a closer look. But it does not strike me as being a priority.
In the meantime we could check out various commonplace objects to see if they are something else in disguise.
