Well, I might be able to dismiss what you say as a fact, all except for the fact that if you look to the NE of the crater that that "structure" is in, you see another one in the little dip past the larger crater to the NE. Kind of "right over the hill", so to speak. I found this one when I popped back into the thread last night, and thought that I'd point it out.

What is it? I dunno, but it sure doesn't look natural to me. Why just those two craters? If this is some sort of hardware malfunction, then why don't ALL of the craters have the same stuff in them? Also, why would NASA allow these things to be seen by casual observers, unless they themselves didn't know they were there? That's quite unlikely, when one considers the fact that they so carefully scrutinize every single millimeter of film that they recover.

What are we to make of this one? You've got me on this one. I'm completely bumfuzzled.

BFT,

i don't know why. usually, if it's a human structure, they cover it in regolith (too many neutrinos or something). at least, they do in their documents regarding possible moon bases.

Thanks undo,

Maybe when I get the energy to play with my photo shop I could circle it( I was hopeing someone would do it for me, as I'm taking my pain med's and to lazy from my little surgery, I just fell like typeing and reading now and then he he he he )

Its on the cliff, almost 3 inches from top corner then down a less than a couple of inches. You can't miss it , its a platform "with a little square building in the middle"..but if nobody see's it or can't understand me right now , its ok.lol

the living moon is cool thats fer sure !!

There is definitely something at the bottom of this crater. It is visible in several Apollo 11 frames:



I expected to see it better in the foreground of AS17-151-23138, and at the edge of AS17-151-23139. The constrast was very low, I had to boost it quite a lot to see anything - a darker hexagonal area maybe?




It looks airbrushed.

The images were not resized, and no aggressive filtering was applied.

this is all very interesting. i'm especially proud of our resident true blue skeptic, armap, for unprejudically giving us really good photos to pour over.

they could be better photos, but they have some real gems in them.
i saw a couple spots that just made me laugh they were so obvious.
the moon sure is a weird place.

yeah, we need to make a alpha-numeric grid of it so you can name which area of the grid.

Well that's interesting. What is it? Doncha wish you could get a big telescope that could see this stuff clearly? it's irritating not knowing what we're seeing but knowing it looks odd for moon terrain

Maybe the "wall" is visible in AS17-151-23139, or it's a compression artifact.

where's the wall in the image?
