its already been established that the image in question is a genuine Apollo 9 photo. Zaphod admits as much, then changes his plan of attack trying to debunk this. everything is scratches and camera issues. i think it may hurt his feelings if anything more advanced than a jet aircraft were to show up somewhere.

Can you explain why we are screwed, if it is L shaped?
I do not understand the reasoning. What connections, specifically, are you implying?

Point is, there are millions of photos taken from Earth, even most of them a little closer to the moon than Apollo-9' view. Any of them are as good a view as this mission got, so why present it as it were a superior data source?

if all you (and Zaphod for that matter) are saying is that they COULD be scratches, that's fine. i"ll agree with that. the image is old and grainy etc, etc. however, we all know that all too often people will come to a thread like this and STATE UNEQUIVOCALLY that something IS scratches (or bugs or lanterns or...), period/thread closed. cruise the ufo forum and you'll see it in damned near every thread. im saying they COULD be spaceships. no matter how "unlikely" you make consider it, it IS a possibility.

giant cylindrical objects, when viewed from a great distance, will appear as lines. is that what you're asking? i do think you have a fine idea there about the cross hairs, no argument, but barring something on the photographic equipment or artifact in processing what would you think they are? more germane a question is: why do you insist it's anything BUT spaceships?

I wish I could find an actual picture of the Command Module's sextant/telescope. All I could find online was this recreation of it (this is an illustration -- NOT a real picture of the sextant). That being said, in this illustration of the sextant, you can see the crosshairs I am talking about:
Image Source: www.geocities.jp...
I think maybe the astronaut held the camera up to the sextant eyepiece.
The CM had five windows. The two side windows measured 13 inches (330 mm) square next to the left and right-hand couches. Two forward-facing triangular rendezvous windows measured 8 by 13 inches (204 by 330 mm), used to aid in rendezvous and docking with the LM. The circular hatch window was 10 5/8 in. diameter (27 cm) and was directly over the center couch. Each window assembly consisted of three thick panes of glass. The inner two panes, which were made of aluminosilicate, made up part of the module's pressure vessel. The fused silica outer pane served as both a debris shield and as part of the heat shield. Each pane had an anti-reflective coating and a blue-red reflective coating on the inner surface. Source wiki

But why would Apollo astronauts use the expensive Hasselblad camera by putting it right up to the sextant telescope when you know that the Command Module has 5 windows?

I think he's referring to a thread from a few days ago. An insider was saying that a giant L shaped space craft had recently arrived into our solar system and parked behind the moon...Tried to search it for you but couldn't find it. Not sure about the we are screwed part..

and what other sort of "spaceship evidence" would you expect to have? i mean, you have a photograph of them provided in the OP. it would seem to me that you have equal evidence for sextant cross hairs and for spaceships. the same evidence, in fact. one photograph. i guess my point is that you (and others) have a persistent bias toward the prosaic explanation that isn't necessarily supported by the totality of the evidence.

because, Jim, this one has something extra. lets not be deliberately obtuse. nobody is saying that these objects are in EVERY photograph of the moon. just this one.
