What it is that YOU think causes the lunar surface luminosity? I'll make it easy for you, multiple choice, or fill-in the blank?

I do NOT KNOW exactly what causes it... I SUSPECT that it is a some advanced form power source that is not always in use, and at this time I have no
idea what it is used for, unless it is a Stargate...
*slaps head*
So your theory is that the ENTIRE lunar surface is littered with some sort of energy devices that produce the luminosity seen.
Thats a lot of energy devices, practically every luminous crater-has some sort of energy device within or some sort of power source or a STARGATE?!
Let's think about that for a second. Ok now look at the Clementine map again and view all of the luminous areas on the moon.
The contrast and brightness adjusted to show just the most luminous areas.
Thats a whole lot of devices and a whole lot of power supposedly being generated. To get a perspective of just how much power potential there would
be, just taking Aristarchus Crater for instance....
It is roughly 25 MILES in diameter, and is around 12,000 FEET IN DEPTH!
To put the massive size into perspective, the LARGEST NUCLEAR POWER PLANT in the US is the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station, in AZ. It's
facilities comprise an area of only 1 sq.mile. It provides 35% of the power needed for the entire state of Arizona for one FULL YEAR.
In comparison, the land area of Ari.C is 490 sq.miles!!! So basically 490 Palo Verde Nuclear Stations could fit into the land area of Aristarchus
Crater! That would be able to power roughly 170 STATES EQUIVALENT IN POWER NEEDS to he state of ARIZONA!
and...
This is only ONE crater we are talking about here!
Questions would arise naturally like:
►What would we use this ASTRONOMICAL AMOUNT of energy for, to mine the moon? Enough to power 170 ARIZONAS?
►Thats a MASSIVE amount of material to TRANSPORT to the moon! Think about it, all of the mining equipment. All of the power plant equipment,
structure, building supplies etc. Unless we had alien help of course. Or we used some gleaned alien technology of course.
►Where is all of this material, I mean now that we have all of these amateur astronomers looking into the sky, at the moon and other solar system
objects, as well as even deep space objects, these imagers can capture pretty darn hi-resolution images. In the past it could be blamed on NASA
cover-up, mil cover-up etc yaddda yadda. But now, well just where is all of the mining equipment, energy production structure presented in a clear
image to the people? Well I haven't seen it, have you? I would think the amateur astronomers would have posted an image if they positively found
something eh?
Perhaps a simpler solution is called for?
OCCAM'S RAZOR, for those that never encountered the term before is simply stated:
SOURCE...
"All things being equal, the simplest solution tends to be the best one." In other words, when multiple competing theories are
equal in other respects, the principle recommends selecting the theory that introduces the fewest assumptions and postulates the fewest
hypothetical entities. It is in this sense that Occam's razor is usually understood.
So is the above correct, namely that we've been to the moon way before Neil Armstrong landed (or whenever as their story goes), constructed HUGE
power plants (or perhaps the aliens did), for one possible purpose of mining the moon (or maybe for other reasons, like maintaining the SOUL
COLLECTOR). All without the knowledge or exposure by any tangible, solid evidence, whether by gov't sources, military whistleblowers, or by the
amateur or professional astronomers?

Or is it simply that the bright geology and luminosity is caused by sunlight and earth reflective light (from the sun)
that causes this brightness upon incidence on the moons special geology ie: upon the
ROCKS.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I propose the simplest theory, no giant power plants nor aliens nor mining colonies, nor MASSIVE logistical nightmare, nor NASA cover-ups needed.
