OK, I caught you! That last image with all the colors is mislabeled.

That's "The Crowning of the Magi", a lost Picasso worth millions.

doh! sonsofguns! now i gotta take it off the fire place mantle!
I shake my fist at you!

If there is no atmosphere on the Moon, how can something "blow" in the wind.

and one of my new favorites...from Luna 7 (russian rover)...yeah its hard to look at but once you get a feel for it....

Spikedmilk, could you send me a link to more information about this Luna 7 image?
And what do you find so interesting in it?
I agree it's interesting but is this the original image? Is that available?

"that top NASA officials privately claim this footage is indeed legitimate. However, certain aspects related to this footage are highly classified, and the matter is under investigation."

To Jedimiller's debunking of the film- Why would they classify something wrong with the film; like a burn on it, in it; whatever.
"Highly classify" actually.
Good bit of footage, I've never seen it before.
Hope someone can provide more information on what it may be.

I would agree with you but look at the gif. The thing moves as the camera moves, so it's not a defect in the lens or a burn in the film. That and the fact that it retains the same basic shape and shadow through all shown frames.

It is not a film or lens defect.

To OP: Could you post the source of these images? Not doubting you, just would like to see the rest of the frames that contain whatever that is.

i can't see the object moving over the surface. it just goes with the camera.

i'm going blind----but your smoke stack pictures look nothing like what could be termed a "natural" occurence in nature-------------to my eyes----------or common sense!

that doesnt debunk it at all.

the horizon of the moon can clearly be seen moving down,it should be moving up if it were being zoomed!,try it yourself

.secondly the apparent original that is produced in the bad astronomy "debunk",
www.badastronomy.com...

look at the left of the horizon,it is not the same horizon as when the object was in the picture!!

In order for your dreams to come true, you have to wake up.

I've examined the footage. having taking numerous photography courses I can safely come to the conclusion that it's a dirty lens. perhaps a hair or fabric got into the developing and made it out to look that way. could also be a burn in the film, but it's a micro defect. Cameras and film get beaten up in space and function funny in space. hope this helps.

Hmmm....... "Cameras and film get beaten up in space and function funny in space. hope this helps." But then the NASA KodaK color pics are so breath-taking- perfect- so what gives here? jedi

what are you talking about? Why would a hair or fabric get on a multi-million dollar camera lens...This is sophisticated material here- not 5th grade science fair kinda stuff. I doubt your correct-but everyone is entitled to their opinion. I'm just saying that nasa's gotta be on top of their game- i doubt its a defect. Footage looks real to me.

Well, x-phile, that's a question you gotta ask John Lear!!

Cheers!

The smoke portion is something to do with a dirty lens or similar. It does not move but appears to as the camera moves. The stack is an object on the Moon that moves with the surface in the gif.

The stack part I think is a combo object and shadow making it look longer than it is as they are combined dark objects on a poor quality scan or original. Use the moon to put the location of the Sun in perspective.

Could be giant cannon? Could be a piece of ejecta? Interesting.

Sorry if I repeated someone else. I'm fudging on work to post and can't read whole threads tonight. I have more than 200 Ad's to finish by Thursday. Thanks for posting the pic

More obelisks on the Moon? Smokestacks? Note the length and geometric shape of the shadows.


The above photo was shot by Orbiter H-2 from twenty-three miles above
the lunar surface, and shows shadows cast by eight spires.
According to NASA, the area photographed is about 740 by
540 feet at lunar coordinates 15 degrees 30' E. 40 degrees 30' N.
The sun was 11 degrees above lunar horizon.

Clarified...
