"For All Mankind" What is in this Criterion footage?

reply to post by weedwhacker


Whilst watching the footage. Can anyone shed any light on what these are at
1:37 mark at 8 oclock
1:45 mark at 8 oclock
1:52 mark at 6 oclock
They are giving off large shadows compared to others. Maybe these are the same as in the background near the lem. I don't know how high up the lem is at these times on the video. Any ideas?

It appears to be the same object in this picture. To me it looks like some form of transponder, or something of that nature.

It may be what NASA is calling "Scientific Instruments"

You know after sleeping on this anomaly through the night:

I though Alan bean Broke the video camera by facing the aperture towards the sun!

No how in the heck did they get video imagery of Apollo 12 then?

This is a interesting question!

I have to agree, I thought that it might be lunar equipment from the shape and location to the LM.

Good find.

What is this though .... in the last second of the clip when the film is about to stop you can see a wall and some tool / umbrella .... in the frame?????

Am I totally losing the plot?

From this footage here ... last frame

we should be able to see this in the moon maps. I think google has one. then there's kaguya and its chinese and indian counterparts.

If we don't see it there, either they are still covering it up OR it was an ET ship that has long since left

Hi chaps, I think I actually recognize what this is straight off the bat, although it's a bit blurry and overexposed on the pic posted. If I'm right you need to look up a structure that Richard Hoagland termed the Shard. It was initially There's also one called the Tower, taken on the same Lunar Orbiter mission (I think...). Anyway, here's a brief random page I found that refers to it.

www.bibliotecapleyades.net...

Maybe someone can do an analysis to see if it might be located in the same region?

TK

Alright as much as I'd love to throw in "it's an ancient ruin tower!" due to some footage I veiwed a while back of apparent ruins that were ordered to be destroyed, on the moon.

I took a few peaks at the photos from the moon landing through my Microsoft Telescope program, and there are a few things that could've related to that object.

1. A Location Marker, there are 1 or 2 of these viewed very visibly in the photos.

2. The Camera, as it was on a tri-pod with an extended neck that then came up to a large white camera. (Yes, somehow someone managed to snap a picture of the camera that was used to take footage.)

3. The flag pole for the US Flag, as if you look, you can see the pole was designed to fold, and probably had the material from the flag bunched up in some sort of wrapping.

AGAIN,

I'm dying to say "OMG Moon Tower!" but not before a few other things are ruled out. Since the image is slightly blurred, it makes it hard to narrow down.

Not very funny....people who ARE familiar with HOAX videos will recognize this pathetic attempt at 'humor', and this particular "frame" especially.....

And its disingenuous inclusion here, and misrepresentation as to its provenance.

Move along....now.

reply to post by jpvskyfreak


To me that looks like the US flag with an eagle on top of it!?

What do you think?

reply to post by weedwhacker


You lost me? so is this wall and umbrella thing part of the real clip or not?

Who included it as a joke?

I took this screen shot as the last frame on the photobucket footage provided?

Wall? Umbrella?

It's the overexposure of the footage that's causing the optical illusion. The object is actually a telemetry pole used to record data and measurements.

The overexposure of the sun reflecting off the moon is washing out anything below the horizon, making the object appear as if it's miles away when actually it's only yards away.

In the simple example below, you can see how the overexposure washes out much of the detail of the image and creates the optical illusion that you're seeing.

I thought it looked like some kind of massager


but your right it seem more plausible that its some kind of Scientific Instrument.

well whatever it is the cameraman notices it to and pans over so its directly in the middle of the shot and stays there for a good few seconds...

reply to post by Kurotachi


You need to watch the original footage.

Whatever you're watching is not the original footage. The astronaut that was filming never moved the camera from his fellow astronaut exiting the lander.

Adams ....

Adamson ...

Bueller ....

Bueller .... Ferris Bueller

Can some one just jump in here for a minute and sooth my mental anguish over the wall and the umbrella thing in the very last frame?

reply to post by Overtime


Oh, that. That would be the "well known" soul/memory energy - Tower of Crystal.

Everyone who passes (my life past before me) goes through it for data dump before being reinstalled for another go around.

reply to post by jpvskyfreak


OK, jp-freak, sorry I jumped on you...at first it looked like you used a frame grab from one of those "hoax" vids all over YouTube...the "prank" video.

What you saw was the INSIDE of Mission Control....the right side of the frame grab, that is the wall of mission control, because what you were viewing before was filmed FROM the big screen, on Earth, that everyone was watching.

Look at the YouTube clip, on page one, that I linked....watch it from 6:15 or so...

Praise you Mr Weed Wacker!

That was doing my head in and it's getting late here ......

Thanks!
