I wouldn't get so excited about that. Please take note of the utube user who posted the 'trailer'...it is a guy promoting his OWN movie, for fun and profit!!

Jose Escamilla is a hack, and a fraud. Probably, he knows that the LRO will soon cause the market for his baloney to dry up...he needs to capitalize on people's naivete' while he can.

Back to reader's OP. We've run amuck in this thread, as is usually the case, but I believe the intent of reader's claim was that photos were 'fake' because of one photo that is alleged to show 'clouds'...

I happen to think it's a tempest in a teapot. Since we have plenty of video that doesn't show any 'clouds' or anomalies, it comes down to a chance angle of a shot where the helmet visor catches the light in a peculiar way. Not an expert on the composition of those gold visors, but I would venture a guess that they were multi-layered and sandwiched in their construction. Think of how your car windows reflect light, sometimes. Or, your gold-mirrored sunglasses.

I find it peculiar that people will nitpick so readily, instead of marveling at the scope and majesty of the space efforts!!

My edit is because I originally wrote a response to the wrong OP!!

Good Find

It could be moon garbage.

We did leave alot of garbage on the moon.

I don't think it was added in afterwards though - but I wouldn't put anything past those NASA types.

Frame from Jack's Station 9 Pan. Northern wall of Van Serg. Journal Contributor Hiroyasu Hayashi calls attention to the white object at bottom center. In a detail ( 222k, we see that the white object is an empty individual-sample-bag holder.

Schmitt probably discarded it while taking samples.

There are footprints nearby.

Check again.

(start with your eyes at the bottom right corner, the prints are more apparent there)

The same way they do today in order to build the ISS... The suits consist of many layers of different fabrics, each with its own purpose, most for insulation. The life support packs are basically miniature versions of what any other spacecraft uses. They're really just fabric spacecraft themselves.

I want to believe. But it gets harder every time. Like for example the Soviet Union simply gave up on it. The US got to the moon and the Soviets said "Damn they beat us, lets go home."

Actually they said "Damn, our rocket blows up every time we launch it. We'd have to start from scratch on the booster if we want to land on the moon, and we can't afford that."
As for the "They stopped cause they had no more money issue." Thats a load of crap, they didn't have to pay anyone for work, they were communists.

Just because you're a communist does not mean you're immune from the basic laws behind economics; finite resources, also known as goods and services. Communism simply means that the right to those resources are not earned by the masses based on how everyone else values the own goods and services each person contributes, but it doesn't mean you suddenly have an infinite amount of goods and services. Rocket design and testing is expensive because it uses up MANY goods and services, even when it goes smoothly. The N1 booster development was deeply flawed and basically needed an entirely new approach from scratch. The thing never even made it into orbit safely, every single one of them exploded.

I went to school for Mechanical Engineering. In some of our classes, our task was to calc out the fuel needed for specific trajectories of rockets. We were not seasoned scientists either.
I am not saying that we had our calcs perfectly correct, but we did them nonetheless.
I dont remember them being that difficult. Maybe I was loaded that day- dont remember.
