That video is set to private viewing.
Wouldn't you at least agree the "Frame-Stacking" enhancement yielded increased detail?

Compare 0:58 with 8:19 in the video.
Is that just a coincidence that our machine from that angle looks so similar to the thing in the crater?
It is estimated to be about 800 million years old, and typifies craters that formed during the Copernican period in that it has a prominent ray system.
...........
Characteristics
Copernicus is visible using binoculars, and is located slightly northwest of the center of the Moon's Earth-facing hemisphere.......Due to its relative youth, the crater has remained in a relatively pristine shape since it formed.
The circular rim has a discernible hexagonal form, with a terraced inner wall and a 30 km wide, sloping rampart that descends nearly a kilometer to the surrounding mare.
.........
Most likely due to its recent formation, the crater floor has not been flooded by lava. The terrain along the bottom is hilly in the southern half while the north is relatively smooth. The central peaks consist of three isolated mountainous rises climbing as high as 1.2 km above the floor. These peaks are separated from each other by valleys, and they form a rough line along an east-west axis. Infrared observations of these peaks during the 1980s determined that they were primarily composed of the mafic form of olivine.

What part of this sentence is hard to understand?
The topic is: LunaCognita- A Forensic Look At The 16mm DAC Film Footage.
It is not commentary on whether or not someone watched it all the way through...
Comment on the film. Not the members. Understand now?

Sorry OP....I thought this was a terrible piece especially when they did the 'stacking'. What the heck were we supposed to be seeing? They pointed nothing out.
And nothin' for nothin', the music was very distracting too.
Surely there's a better presentation than this. But, thanks anyway!

You asked several questions and then said don't reply to this post.
I'm confused. Which is it? Do you want answers to your questions or not?
No, I don't understand. it's not at all clear, just like this last post. Nor does it address any of the questions I asked with regard to clarification.
The member was not being attacked (I can't speak for all posts, but I can speak for my own, which were also removed) it was being pointed out - and categorically proven - that their condemnatory judgement of the material in question was rendered without having actually examined the material. That's not an "attack", it's debate regarding the quality of the material and the rejection of a judgement based on it being uniformed. This is standard ATS discussion, and I can't for the life of me see why it has been surgically cut out of this thread, except to coverup a members errors and protect their perspective from criticism (criticism of of the validity of perspectives - debate - which is what we are here for and is not an "attack"

This is the type of stuff that would be funny if it wasn't so sad. Forensic, lol.
Honetsly, I tried to make this longer than one line, but I think I summed up what I and many others are thinking when they see tripe like this.

I am most impressed by the enhanced clarity gained by the post production "stacking" effect. I think this process can shed new light on previously unrecognizable footage. I am happy to have seen it and for the gained insight.

As for the loss of detail, I don't know if there was any, but looking at the original frames I think that there are more shades of grey than on the final image, and if that's the case then there was some detail loss.
