5,000 high resolution moon mission pictures

Seeing how much you liked John Lears pictures I thought I would post a link to a folder with more than 5,000 high resolution pictures (2340x2350) from the Apollo missions to the moon. The folder contains pictures that even the Apollo Archive don't show, and is used for an unknown reason. Only some of the pictures are in the Apollo Archive. As an example there are about 742 images of the Apollo 17 mission in the Apollo Archive, but in this folder there are 2373. No web page links to it and I found it strictly by chance.

Happy hunting for anomalities

This to me looks abit photoshopped. It screams fake to me, look at the satellite dishes at the top left of the lander.

You're right. Unless that's the shape of the dish, it looks like there's a piece cut out.

Also, we really don't know the source of these photos. Thank you for the link though. A lot of photos to check out.

I find this one to be of interest, here take a look.
it looks like an anomalie,but hey you be the judge.

They may be composites, they may be photoshop art. But it is using real moon images, that's for sure.

A big THANK YOU to Acharya. 5000, wow!!

I love this.

Well spotted! Clearly the photo has been illuminated to show this background detail.

The website was a temperary website for the Apollo Archive back in 2004, but havent been since. This points to it having earlier some function in relation to the Apollo Archive. It is still being fed with images though, the latest in August 2006.

The old archived webpage can be found here:

web.archive.org...*hh_/161.115.184.211/teague/apollo/html/apidx_apollo_1.html

The web server is owned by:
Lynchburg College, 1501 Lakeside Drive, Lynchburg, USA.

Hey if anyone is interested, I figured out the actual sight that this is the front door to this site is www.apolloarchive.com... All of the pictures with descriptions is there, seperated by missions.

Much easier this way..

Take a look at the colorful debris strewn around. Look carefully.

And what the hell is this?

thanks for all that,its extremely interesting to go through.

WEIRD soundbites.....

Schmitt reports "flash" on moon..

Orange soil?

Lighting marks?!!?..

You're right. Not all of them are listed on the list. But if you use the search option and search by image ID you can get descriptions of some of the pictures.

The last one SteveR brought up came back with "Description not available yet"

You could still use it as a cross-reference.

Brown worm-like thingy:

Apollo 16:
161.115.184.211...
161.115.184.211...
161.115.184.211...

, and Apollo 17:
161.115.184.211...
161.115.184.211...
161.115.184.211...
161.115.184.211...

I figured it might be some debris from the landers.



[edit on 16-9-2006 by Acharya]

It probably is from the lander.

It's still odd though because it looks the same exact size in each picture. There also seems to be only one piece in each picture.

Especially on the last two you selected from A17, the debris piece doesn't look like foil, and yet there is no other orangey colored components on the lander.

OMFG thank you for posting the audio!!! priceless!!!!!! (now where's my sampler)
thanks for the huge chunk-o-links!

No problem... amazing stuff. If you find any more anomalous audio, let us know.
