GEX does but I notice he hasn't been on since 30th december it may be worth a U2U, ArMap I think can read a little russian.
The original enlarged anomaly images where in fact made by internos on the JL moon pics thread after I had mentioned there were a couple of other odd shapes in the pic, so due credit to internos also.

You dont have to land on the moon to get debris on the moon. You people are forgetting the moon has its own gravitational force. And there has been many missions that went near or past the moon
Unless we'd assume that a debris lost *somewhere* in orbit would fall exactly in that area of the Moon surface.

How many years have we been sending people and machines to the moon when this picture was taken? It is of course plausible as any to theorize that an object lost or discarded in orbit around the moon would fall and hit A location depending on its trajectory.
in short, it had to land somewhere why not right there? That is a possible place for random debris randomly floating around a random area of surface to land.
Back to topic, I haven't seen the Archimedes's Screw picture before That's interesting.

Current location
The final location of Lunokhod 1 is uncertain by a few kilometers since lunar laser ranging experiments have failed to detect a return signal from it since the 1970s. [1]. Notwithstanding, Lunokhod 1 and the Luna 17 lander were sold by auction for $68500 in 1993 at Sotheby's in New York. The auction catalog listing described the spacecraft as "resting on the surface of the moon".

Interesting theory but the object on the moon seems like 3 round discs that are separate rather than connected like the drill.
