That image is very very fake, it looks like it's been put together by many images.

Some time ago probably about 4-5 years ago some pictures clearly showing structures on the moons surface were published in a magazine called "UFO Magazine" It was a UK publication however went out of print when the founder,writer,owner,editor passed away. I remember these pictures being awesome clearly showiing structures. I cant find anything on a search. If any other person ever collected the mags they shoud be able to find them easily. Sadly i binned mine when moving house

Remember that most pics from space are mosaic composites, not just ONE picture.
Not to mention, from the scale of these photos, the "structures" (as you're assuming) would be on the order of "Grand Canyon-sized" and be visible from Earth-based telescopes I'd wager...
Clementine also gave us pics of the Apollo landing sites, but even at the best res, the blast marks were mere specks...so imagine how big these things would have to be....
Personally, I think we're seeing some blurs by spacedust or something in front of the camera lens for some pics, and simple mosaic edges for others.
EDIT: NM, even the smudged ones are straight-edged when you look at them closer, all seem like mosaic edges (with some pics that didn't come out great).
Off_the_Street had a great writeup of how such mosaic images are taken, on one of the other threads showing mosaic pics...

You think they strap a 5 megapixel camera on a satellite and photograph the entire moon in one picture? Of course its many images. That's how you map.
In regards to the topic itself: The Clementine images are more blurry than your average UFO image. I dont trust anything that's a big blur.
Besides, the "buildings" are totally unrealistic in size. Its like 1 pixel per kilometer: Those "towers" would be so tall they'd poke Earth.

One thing that strikes me as strange, and the main reason I'm somewhat skeptical of this, is the poor quality of the censorship. I would think that if there was something on there that just had to be hidden, whomever censored it would have gone to the length to hire a highly trained graphic tech to do the job, someone who does it for a living and who wouldn't make it that blurred. I mean, even someone who doesn't know much at all about Photoshop could've at least blurred out all of that one 'structure.'
Guys, this is more subtle than that. People behind this cover-up are probably very intelligent. They try to see how we think and react, and they set things perfectly in order to create confusion and skepticism. This is the way i see it.
Aside from that, why release the images at all if there's something that you want to hide? No one in the public really gets to know exactly how many images NASA has, no one gets a direct line to Hubble or anything. There could've been a "signal loss," and the images with the good info didn't make it back to Earth. Not that difficult to keep images from a probe or non-public telescope out of the public eye.
Clementine satellite has spent two months taking "officially"almost 2 milion images of the moon. I don't see them checking 2 milions of pictures, in detail. That's why there will be probably more discoveries.

This may have been stated before, but if you type in Lat -16, Long 61 then you will see what looks like tracks of some sort, if you try to follow the tracks it wont let you see anymore. can you tell me if you have seen this or if you know what it might be?
Edited because since I have typed this I am having trouble finding the image again

Ok 1 pixel, 256 by 256 you might need to go left of were it puts you.

here is why i believe its real:
-probably it was done in a hurry
-they have to hire those who can keep secrets and thats not always the professionals
-remember McKinnon? you still think they are professional enough?
-it would be a plain waste of money and time to cover it up good enough. Why bother if it won't change a thing? they keep the mass media shut, no need to care.
-we(those who digg) will be still arguing no matter how hard the proof is
note: and yeah, i was skeptic as hell before i've fired the photoshop up. base on the moon just sounds plain nuts.

I understand your points but censoring in such a sloppy way is pointless as people easily see it. It took my about 20 seconds just to do the image I did.
