So your just posting to "kill" time?

Why not get a job and be a productive citizen I mean seriously we already have enough hoaxsters on ATS and I don't think we need more....

Hopefully your a new member so I can take it easy on you but with definitive comments such as "there isn't a single anomaly that can be taken seriously" I am not so sure.

What are they symbols of?
Is this an existing language or symbol?

Here is a symbol of my thoughts in respect
to finding rocks and kidding me not that it
IS a symbol.

By the way you don't seem that skeptical, have you ever considered going by "Ed" instead of "Skeptical Ed?" But I give you credit for recognizing the value of what spacecase7717 posted, that says good things about you.

Well, I am a natural skeptic in that I don't have a belief system. I'm at a point in life that I either know or I don't know but I've never believed especially from the '60s on when I became a hypnotist which led me to study the mind and what causes belief systems.

I have registered on ATS under another name and every day I think "I won't post or reply on ATS as Skeptical Ed any more." But then I see someone making a comment to my comment or thread and I have to reply as SE. Perhaps I'll drop it tonight!

Using Skeptical Ed people automatically assume I'm a close-minded person. I am in a way when it comes to accepting other than humans in creation and aliens interacting with humans. But it's only because of the lack of evidence acceptable to me. I have high standards and it's got to be irrefutable evidence. Hearsay just won't do it. That's my skeptical side. I've had 6 solid UFO sightings so no one can accuse me of being a UFO skeptic.

What happened is two things: The resolution is higher from JAXA and the sun is at a different angle, so are the shadows. Take a lower resolution picture again today with the sun at the original angle and you would probably get the old picture again, I doubt it's changed much since then.

I don't know what to think about the obvious change to the landscape. The original Lunar Orbiter photo is considered high resolution and visible details confirm this. Even with the photo's high contrast. The "symbols" are casting shadows. Their shape is definite. The "V" looks like it's really carved in the surface. The new photo, as I said, now has an unusual concave surface and that "knob" appearance is definitely strange.

When things like this happen, I wonder what a real poster-size photo from NASA would show. There couldn't be that much difference. Unfortunately, I've done a serious search on google images and there are just not that many other photos of the crater. They're either from telescopes which provide no detail or they're the same photo I posted but with less detail or the JAXA.

You want really clear symbols?

Go to chile, rent a plane and fly over the nasca lines! Yes they are beutiful and clear as clear can be yet skeptical debunkers always find a convienent excuse to hide anything of extra-terrestial origin.

How the hell would it be possible for humans to draw such a complex assortment of geometrically accurrate lines and figures that stretch miles upon miles and most importantly for what purpose?

Then you expect our so-called experts to take lunar anomalies serious?

I'm very aware of the Nazca glyphs. You can accept the prosaic explanation that a Nazca culture created them or you can believe that they are the creation of "extraterrestrials." For some reason, some humans prefer to believe that humans are stupid and talentless despite our technological wonders. There is nothing complicated about the Nazca glyphs regardless of what von Daniken and his supporters would like you to believe. Keep your eye out for the next showing of documentaries where they are explained but stay away from the "documentaries" that claim ets.

I don't know any experts and there isn't a single lunar "anomaly" that can be taken seriously. My post was for fun only and to show that no one posting lunar "anomalies" has pointed out clear things out like these "symbols" that are symmetrical.

"There is nothing complicated about the Nazca glyphs"

Just wanted to make sure you actually said that, anyway regardess of the complication involved, the real question is why would anyone construct something such as the Nazca lines, which can only be appreciated from the air, when of course conventional history tels us no-one had the capability, any theories on that one?

So is "symbols" the new terminology for "shadows" these days? I really don't see it.

I'm a bit curious like Groingrinder,
The centre of the crater is not as interesting as the right side "edge" of the crater which is so very smooth and archlike. At the bottom right there even appears to be something casting a shadow through, and as if under the "Arch"
