Yes, ziggy: the piece of antenna looking like the lunokhod one was brought somewhere else here on ats regarding this stuff, and it does make much
sense: but we have three problems with it:
first, there is not indication of the existence of such antenna on the lander we are talking about, but this means nothing: Jim Oberg will be more
able than me to explain why they would hide the devices related to transmissions/communications
the second problem i have with the piece of antenna theory is that i don't see why an antenna could break that way, and not, for example, at its
basement: i mean it does not make sense that type of breaking
the third problem is the impact site: do you see any marks of impact around there ? I don't. Everything should leave a mark, let's assume that it
bounced at least two three times: where are the marks then?
Anyway, ziggy, the antenna explanation as said makes much sense because of the resembleance. Maybe Jim knows what transmission devices were installed
on Lunik 13, i honestly don't.
