China has found something shocking on the Moon?

Hmm.. I was trying to find more info on the sources.. The site that posted the article is suspect but the images come from a news station that is controlled by Chinas Propaganda Department. I'm not sure how Chinese media works though exactly.. So maybe everything on TV there is controlled by the propaganda department? I'm not sure but basically if they refuse to report something they get fired and the outlet is restructured lol. Maybe it's just China playing games with us.

That was going to be my question, "can anyone tell us if this site is even a reliable source." Not too useful if it's the Chinese equivalent of the Weekly World News.

link to images

www.cnsa.gov.cn...


why does the last one look like a LRO image ?

Because it's a picture of the Moon?

The word weight is used in this article to reference "weight of opinion" as in, some people thought there should be disclosure of whatever it is they are excited about, but more people thought it should be withheld.

And so pictures of whatever it is were witheld. It actually does sound fishy. "We have something interesting but we're not going to tell you", sort of thing. Well, maybe they do, and maybe they don't.

If there is something extraordinary on the moon I don't think we will be hearing about it anytime soon.

Why did that Chang-e 1 moon image look so much like a clementine image?

I was just thinking that rice birds was a reference to the American crow.. Maybe they are saying that nasa will be eating crow soon...

In some of those moon images from the last posted images link there are clearly a lot of things that shouldn't be there.. you would have to be visually and mentally blind not to see them.. just zoom in at 1000% ...

Zooming in at 1000% shows you a lot of things that aren't there.

No matter how much you see it on CSI, it just ain't so. You can't get details that aren't in the original image. When you over zoom, the software "makes up" what is in between the original pixels.

Maybe a Rice Bird is an alien spacecraft?!

I've no idea but have always been interested in the moon and find it very curious that images have blurred areas. If there's nothing to see/hide then why blur anything out? It just peaks my interest more. I don't expect we'll find out in the near future what they're smudging out but it's still interesting to look at images and speculate.

Okay, I can believe that...

If it is true though, that software is pretty good at making 90 degree angled pipes and what looks like honeycomb wall structures...

it doesn't look like junk pixels, it looks like something, either there, or rendered by the software glitch to resemble design of some sort. If I wanted to fake anomolous moon artifacts, that software issue would be perfect because it blends everything to make the photo appear untouched.

Either way, it still provokes the imagination, and that is what got me interested in astronomy anyways.. so it's all good

If you are saying an image viewer can add pixels or data to the viewscreen that isn't actually in the photograph, based on zoom factor, I would just have to give up all interest in everything and become a vegetable..

Rice Birds = Moon Pigeons.

I wonder what the Chinese would think of our moon pigeon term....

Well dang it... how the heck you supposed to see the rice birds if you don't zoom in?

I have to agree, for now, with Maya00a because I lean towards it being a craft.

Thing is, the NASA photo was taken 1994, and then it's still there. Let's speculate for a minute;

1. A downed ET craft (rice "bird" reference)
2. An ancient craft we left there
3. A building / vantage point from the moon
4. Swamp gas

Either way, you don't smudge something out unless you don't want people to see something.

Why is this kind of stuff not on the news? O, hang on.......now I remember.

Come on China, I dare you to slap NASA's face and show them up for the liars and front that they are.

Yea, it's already been said that they used the Clementine pic, can you explain what it is that's blurred for us zorgon?

Well I can't see under that cover but I do have this one (while we wait to see more about the 'rice birds'

See it?

Maybe that is the rice bird

Please can you give me some background info on the pic? I've never seen it before and its a remarkable photo!!!

not a space program where NASA has its fingers in the pie

Exactly, we will never see what's really up there unless we have access to raw unedited images.

I tried to sharpen the first image, but there wasn't much to work with..

You click on the image and get a Chinese porn site...

You think that's what they meant with the word "birds" in that translation?? British, innit, for girls, floozies, loose women?? British had control of Hong Kong for so long....maybe some lingo/slang the Chinese pick up??

Using Bing's translator, I got this result for the character 鸟

Translation
Bird
Dictionary
鸟1
名词
(同“犀”, 旧小说中用做骂人的话) male genital organ
名词
1. (脊椎动物的一纲) bird: 雏鸟 baby bird; nestling; 害鸟 harmful [destructive, pernicious] bird; 留鸟 resident (bird); 神鸟 mythical bird
2. (姓氏) a surname: 鸟明 Niao Ming

So maybe the porn site is connected

西鸟 translates to "Western bird" (e.g. the remains of one of NASA's "birds"?)

Maybe this is a bird and not a craft...

a very big bird at that...

This is RICH

You click on the image and get a Chinese porn site...

And all you super sleuths think that China actually is sending you a picture of the moon?

That photo was taken in 1994 by the Clementine NAVY mission

That picture has something blurred out on it.

Maybe it was an annunaki spacesport?

OMG
me too
I would almost pay to see that,
can I get that on pay per view?

Now, can anybody speculate as to the
size of that thingy that's brushed out???

1 story tall?

6 stories tall??

an approximation would be fine
