Google Earth V5.x > Moon > 26°10'7.31"N 21°29'56.11"W
I tried uploading this to media but it won't accept my logon....Anyhoo, I came across this interesting feature. It looks on the surface, unnatural
and it's got me stumped.

Well, NASA did have a rover driving around on the moon.
Maybe they left these tracks.
Our rovers on Mars are making similar tracks all over the place.

I think that what you have is proof of a giant race of cat people sharpening their claws on the moon. Great find S&F!

Interesting find, nomadros. Tell me, how did you come up on this (source)?
|
Most of the images of tracks usually turn out to be roll marks from either a impact that came in at such a steep angle that it rolled, or from a loose
boulder that rolled down a hill. Since this image shows crossing tracks of similar size and length, it appears to be quite extraordinary.
Good find

That image is from Apollo 15 (Photo ID AS15-M-1152). The marks appear to be a photographic flaw. They do not appear in the next image which was taken
23 seconds later.

Was just randomly wandering about Google Moon as you do when there is nothing on TV
Pity it's been moved to Space Exploration as it just seems too "odd."

Someone got down there with a dustpan and brush and covered it up! 
It almost looks as if the first picture is stitched together from 4 pictures.

As ever, the voice of reason drags me kicking and screaming back to reality. Thanks Phage. My bad for letting excitement get in the way of
investigation.
