Feldspar DOES NOT FLUORESCE ...EVER nor does it have PHOSPHORESCENCE
Fluorescence is an effect created by high energy light usually UV exciting particles in the rock causing it to glow, and depending on the content it can be VERY bright especially if Uraniun salts are present... (or Thorium which seems to be abundant on the moon).
Some LTP phenomena may be caused by sunlight interacting with the lunar soil. On October 30, 1963, James Greenacre and Edward Barr observed red spots sparkling on the southwest wall of the crater Aristarchus, the east wall of Schroter's Valley, and a hill between them (S&T: December, 1963, page 316).
The phenomena was observed visually by others and recorded spectroscopically as well. At the same lunar phase a month later, Greenacre and Barr saw a similar event. Since sunrise on these features occurs when the Moon is about 11 days old, Greenacre thought that the low lunar Sun was somehow responsible. Indeed, thermoluminesence mat be the cause. Gases in the lunar soil, frozen during the night, could heat up and escape near sunrise.
Could high-energy solar particles impacting the Moon also trigger LTP activity? Shortly after a large flare erupted on the Sun in 1963, Zdenek Kopal and Thomas Rackham at Pic du Midi Observatory in southern France photographed a local brightening around the craters Copernicus, Kepler, and Aristarchus. Kopal proposed that energetic particles from the flare caused lunar rocks to fluorescence. Such activity might be expected especially at full phase when the Moon passes through the Earth's magnetosphere, where solar wind particles become trapped.
Chandra has been used to prospect for elements on the Moon. Oxygen, magnesium, aluminum and silicon were detected over a large area of the lunar surface.
The lunar X-rays are caused by fluorescence due to the impact of solar X-rays on the surface of the Moon.
Fluorescent X-rays give a direct measurement of elements present, independent of assumptions about the type of mineral or other complications. When longer observations of the Moon are made with Chandra, they should help to determine if the Moon was formed by a giant impact of a planetoid with the Earth about 4.5 billion years ago, or by some other process.

As well...i might be able to get Cubit...is is windows compatible or just for Linux?
But then that is the tactics these guys use... fill the thread with post after post of stuff that just makes it hard for viewers to even follow the thread... and then toss in incorrect quotes and putting words into our mouths...
And as in the case of the Feldspars... providing totally incorrect or at best misleading data...
Nice going! To bad it doesn't work
Yes John I am with the Navy now, also I am an airbrusher and a disinfo agent and I have not one or two cloud images, but thousands, millions even! The other ATS'er, rilance, he is my underling

And finally these images are UV light spectrum enhanced from Clementine I believe:
This image seems like I can't see the hexagonal crater feature right? Do YOU SEE THE DOME AND THE HEXAGONAL protrusion that 'appears' to be dimpled out from the crater floor?

Interesting I also do not see the central mountain peaks that are usually in the center of Aristarchus either... so where did they go? I suppose in all your haste you neglected that little ommision as not important? As Cy said many of those images show different centers... make me think that either the crater changes, or someone is showing me different craters...

I stumbled onto a site that had some cub files translated into images and they were HUGE like 250 MB in size, I'll have to see if I can find it again....

Simply amazing, do you just post your thoughts haphazardly.
I bet you didn't even download the image to perform some, at least cursory examination of the crater floor in that image.
Cmon, can't you see that the image is NOT REAL COLOR, NOT VISIBLE SPECTRUM.

Yes indeed, and if it is not one of these, it still is an anomalie which doesn't seem to fit in the area at all.
Thank you THAT is precisely the point... I believe it to be ancient mining equipment, but it may not be... But it is clearly NOT a rock or natural feature. And taken in overall context with the rest of the area...
Just simply the fact that it shouldn't be there is important, no matter what it might actually be

Here are a couple of photos of the possible nuclear reactor called Aristarchus on the moon. On each drawing I have outlined in silver pen the definite boundaries of shapes I saw. When I work with the photo of Aristarchus I always use a new print so I am not distracted by something else I have drawn on the photo. That is why the tunnels and the rectangular opening and other shapes are not on the same print. I have been meaning to combine the shapes I see into one photo but I have not had time so I am posting 2 of them.

How petty and childish of you. I expect that kind of behavior from 3rd graders. Oh, sorry, not to offend you, after all, ages aren't posted on ATS so there's really no telling your age.

But when it turned into an obvious dishonest debunking effort with hundreds of unrelated photos and your sorry 'good cop, bad cop' routine we grew weary
So you have to understand that Zorgon is way ahead of of you and not tolerant of your inconsistencies and erroneous information. He is not petty and childish, he is just calling a spade a spade.
If you want to bow out gracefully we will understand. If not, you will have to account for your dishonesty and misrepresentations because no matter how long it takes Zorgon will call you on every one of them. Understand? Thanks.
Good job on the overlay drawing. Have you seen a similar technique, called "Project Redstar", not sure who did the overlay on this video, but pretty bang up job.
Regards to Aris.C though, NOT convinced that the crater is a DOME.
Am convinced that the crater is...well a crater, a trick of shadow and light.
ALSO, in the above images, how do you account for the OTHER bright areas surrounding Aris.C? There are 2 distinct areas of matching lumnosity there, in addition to Aristarchus.
