Soviet Moon Images

Hello guys.

Don't know if anyone has found this site before but it seems to be a very nice collection of high-res soviet moon images. No strange air-brushing.
Havent had a good chance to look through all of them but im sure you lot will have them under the scope within the hour. (looks at Zorgon and Mike)

Example:

Thanks

There are a lot of cool photos on that site, id honestly never really though about the images that the soviets may have taken with their satellites, its cool to finally see some.

Like this one




looks like a can in the middle, i wonder what it is, maybe a part the rover that broke off.

Good find olegkvasha

Very nice Oleg, if you dig through John Lears forum on moon pics.. Internos , Zorgon and Zarnziwoop did a nice research job on pieces left behind some of the earlier modules (ie the last pic provided by atticus, btw )... while you're there look up the story on the lone 'little' cosmonaut. If you cant find it, let me know, I'll fill ya in. Good work Oleg. flag for you brotha.

i just read about the coso artifact after reading your post and its quite interesting, the idea of an ancient spark plug is bizare, although it seems that some people suggest that it looks like an old 1920's spark plug but that doesnt make sense if you think that it came from a 500,000 year old geode.


I must admit the coso artifact does look similar to that wierd thing in the picture i posted, but not the same.

I found some stuff on those objects from a reputable site but couldn't find it for this post .
It had just struck me as similar. Each are interesting none the less. Gonna look for more info on your pic

This should get you in the right 'direction' as far pinpointing the 'corso' artifact and what it might possibly be.

Oleg! A star and flag!! Two stars would've been better but that's not possible as the programing doesn't permit it!!

That's what I call a cool find! Now don't you disturb me. I'm going right in!! Let's see what we've got here!

Like what the heck is this...?



Cheers!

Like, a rock? What is it we are supposed to see here?

reply to post by olegkvasha


Great find.

It doesn't look like the Soviets photoshop their pictures as much as NASA does .

They also had some interesting pictures from their Venus rover...

Threads pending: "The russians never landed on the moon, there are no stars!" and "Definate proof for life on the moon, used cans!"

And so on, and so on.. Nice to see pictures from someone not NASA!

Maybe he is referring to what looks like tracks in front of the rock. Those could be anything though. Anything....hmmm....

Agreed! Good find!

Looks like a lot of debris in that shot!

And what the heck is that shadow in the "can" area?

It looks like the antenna of a huge lunar ant!!

Awesome photos, thanks for sharing!

But I have a question, and it's a little off topic. In the photos taken by the "rover", do you see stars? I do.

Now, not to beat a dead horse... But if we can see stars here, then why couldn't we within the moon landing photos/movies?

I also don't believe that the moon landing was faked, however the whole "star" argument has always been in the back of my head.

Uuhm, thats called a rock

Whatever vehicle with tires that ran over the rock pushed it to the side..you can see a line where the tire pushed the rock to the right of the track..interesting.The vehicle was moving from right to left facing the photo. No doubt was photos of the old American tracks left behind..or did they have a rover as well?

anyway, OBVIOUS tiretracks and easy to read..tires made for sandy surfaces with wider grooves than normal. Good find!!

Oh very helpful to the thread, whassup dude can't you afford the Oxford English Dictionary and spell the word Colour correctly.

Interesting photo OP, as I don't spend time scanning these images like some members do I will wait for Mr Lear's take on it.

Thanks
