Anything else you want me to take a look at ?

Yep Borg, agreed...If there are some other chemical processes involved, organic or not, that could explain the variation in colour with the oxidization on phosphorous we would normally expect..
Now the question is, what could cause that...
Edited - Cos I'm and idjit and dont read properly sometimes
If the premise is a mining operation... the obvious thing to do is search for anomalies that support a mining operation... You also have to adjust your search to the scale of the image...

I would interject that none of the pictures "clearly" show anything, so please don't use that term. The pictures are all very low resolution and nothing is clearly anything. If there were CLEAR evidence, like very high resolution photos showing a base on the moon, I guarantee it would be on the news already, because one of us would make that happen.
A lot of the images, such as the rectangular structure in the crater could be attributed to compression artifacts.
I'm not saying those images are or aren't something, I'm just saying be objective, they aren't CLEARLY anything.
Aren't those ejecta rays a flat feature? The idea I have of it is that they are like a splash of mud, painting the ground with a layer of the material ejected from the impact.

Where did the rays go?
I can not see any "spaceport" or "city", but I think that the features you identified as "city" and "spaceport" are there, in the same place as they were in the other photo, just not that visible.
To add to the mystery in the Apollo 8 photo you can clearly see the city and the spaceport and all of the tubular structures.

Hi, I'm new to this site,
This parking lot idea just doesnt seem to fit, prehistoric-phosile-fuled vehicles on the moon? The stucture resembles more to be some type of proccessing plant or maybe a geo-thermal plant... for what you might ask?
well the obvious of course which is WATER or H2O. the one substance not easily obtained in space.

Zorgon,
All of the evidence leads to greatlakes and Rilance being professionally sponsored. Let me respectfully suggest that you do not waste any of your valuable time on either of them. Their obstructions follow a time-honored pattern of 'plant and run' where they suggest something which sounds logical but isn't and then leave without explaining or elaborating shouting over there shoulder, "you do the research."
I know that it is easy and fun for you to beat them to a pulp with evidence and facts but we have work to do. They're probably full-time airbrushers with NASA.

Thank you for that opinion "they don't seem to be natural.."
As to looking at any others... no I don't have any others that you need to look at... after all this thread is NOT about looking at anomalies in detail.. studying them as best we can, and gathering comments and opinions about what others see in these anomalies...
I DO hope the sarcasm came through in that last statement
Seriously Rilence... I posted four of the easiest for others to see anomalies and it truely IS the point of this thread to point out these anomalies... And we have repeatedly said that they must be viewed in a graphics program and for people to double check them in the originals so one can see we are not making this up.
So I would humbly suggest you do look at them in the context they are in in the original photos of Copernicus... The "Ancient Excavator" is on a graded slope near several "buildings" and the sloped grade goes through most of the image in Cop #1
In order to understand the concept of the Lunar mine we are presenting, one must look at the whole of the evidence together not just pick apart a single image.
If the premise is a mining operation... the obvious thing to do is search for anomalies that support a mining operation... You also have to adjust your search to the scale of the image...
All this we have done... and guess what? we find MANY examples to support our theory
And you make that kind of comment ?

This thread needs people like greatlakes and others to come in, look, analyse and post..Fresh eyes, blood and ideas are always a good thing when trying to make sense of anything.

Zorgon, I would have thought you had already realised I have seen these anomalies throught the thread, and I've said to you here, and in U2U that I dont doubt for a second quite a few of them are buildings and so on. ?
As to your question a page or so back with regard to phosphorous, indeed there must be oxygen up there causing it to oxidize and glow like that.. Probably together with some other substances to give the blue color...

So here is the deal. If you would like to conduct a critical thinking class here on ATS you have every right to do so. But I respectfully request that you do not hijack this thread with pictures of milk drops telling us that that is what Aristarchus is. Thanks.
The Aristarchus plateau is a rectangular, elevated crustal block about 200 km across, surrounded by the vast mare lava plains of Oceanus Procellarum.
Clementine altimetry shows that the plateau is a tilted slab sloping down to the northwest, that rises more than 2 km above Oceanus Procellarum on its southeastern margin. The plateau was probably uplifted, tilted, and fractured by the Imbrium basin impact, which also deposited hummocky ejecta on the plateau surface. The plateau has experienced intense volcanic activity, both effusive and explosive.
It includes the densest concentration of lunar sinuous rilles, including the largest known, Vallis Schroteri, which is about 160 km long, up to 11 km wide, and 1 km deep. The rilles in this area begin at 'cobra-head' craters, which are the apparent vents for low-viscosity lavas that formed vents for 'dark mantling' deposit covering the plateau and nearby areas to the north and east. This dark mantling deposit probably consists primarily of iron-rich glass spheres (pyroclastics or cinders), and has a deep red color on this image.
The Aristarchus impact occurred relatively recently in geologic time, after the Copernicus impact but before the Tycho impact. The 42 km diameter crater and its ejecta are especially interesting because of its location on the uplifted southeastern corner of the Aristarchus plateau. As a result, the crater ejecta reveal two different stratigraphic sequences: that of the plateau to the northwest, and that of the portion of Oceanus Procellarum to the southwest.
The infrared spectral properties measured by Clementine are consistent with a composition of almost pure anorthosite, the primitive rock type produced by the lunar magma ocean. This is the first discovery of a major exposure of anorthosite in this region of the Moon, well within the boundary of the hypothetical Procellarum basin.

Try FOCUSING on one image anomaly at a time, is that so hard to do?
