Zoom in on the moon: Astronomers create most detailed lunar landscape images ever seen (You can go u

OP: We're obviously looking at the wrong side of the moon... and haven't you heard of cloaking devices?

Seems that some craters have strange metallic looking objects right in the middle.

From the same space probe -



Yes, we are still looking at Earth's Moon here, not Mars.
Source: Dark streaks in Diophantus crater

That crater is located on the western edge of Mare Imbrium.

Yeah very usefull indeed.. a full HD pic of the side of the moon constantly facing earth.

It keeps amazing me how nobody wonders where the mountains of data and pictures are from the far side of the moon?

And really, with every semi decent pc user able to edit their own pictures nowadays im really not that impressed with the fact that there are no "smudges" on this compilation.

Has anyone else noticed some parts of the surface are being censored? I wish i could share the coordinates of what im seeing but the site doesnt seem to support it. Is this intentional or just a flaw?

Thoughts?

Isnt it odd that some craters look like perfect circles?

what's on the other side? what cloaking devices? you still would believe in alien stuff on the moon when nasa would fly you up there and show you around, cause it's cloaked. not visible for the naked human eye. got any youtube video proof for your claims? or a nice hoaxland story?

but I also wish you could zoom in a little bit more.

I found some weird looking structures inside a crater and something that looks like a smudged road leading to the structures. But the resolution sucks.

Are allright found some more smudges. Damn you NASA. Sorry guys but it´s useless. The image is not the real deal.

Hey there everyone,
This ones weird, it looks like a crater impact and what looks like as wheel tracks or a track leading out of the center of impact to the impact edge then it turns.. not sure what natural occurance on the moon would cause an indentation to turn about 45 degree/s here's the pick

Yeah, i saw those too. Theres too many unanswerable questions about this, i really wish you could zoom in further to get a better view.

Those are collapsed lava tubes. The lava was running under the surface and created hollow tubes. The tubes then collapse, leaving these long indentations.

It's something like a sinkhole, but a very long and thin sinkhole.

Well.. I've always wondered about a number of curiosities with regards to the moon.. But lets see if any of these might raise some questions (Hint,, look at the shadows)

Nobody finds the perfect circle looking craters odd? The whole moon looks like those games were you have to get a marble through a maze and into a hole. How do they explain that?

When a drop of water hits the water surface, the ripples created are perfect circles. At the speeds/energies with which meteors hit the moon, the process can also be very "fluid", like water.

This also explains the mountains seen in the center of some craters. These are "center uplift mountains", which are cause by the recoiling of the ground immediately after a meteor impact (like the recoiling of the water droplet):

Yeah I thought sinkholes myself. If something was on the moon for an inspection or whatever, there would be no questions to debate on. There would be obvious different tracks and other evidence everywhere. There would be no speculation. Thats just natural.

There we go! And the fact that it has an artificial rotation. So where's the picture of the other side, the one none of us have ever seen, the dark side of the moon.

Those circles have almost perfect edges, compared to the other pictures hmmm...

Alot of photos from far distances can look sharp and perfect until your actually walk upon it face to face. But for the sake of conspriacy and the unknown, I will not guarantee that i think it's nothing, cause I simply don't know, im not walking on the moon anytime soon to investigate.

Here's the far side:
Far Side of the Moon
and another picture:
apod.nasa.gov...

[EDIT TO ADD:
Although I would think that eventually we should get an image similar to the OP's of the near side.]

By the way, it's the "far side" and not the "dark side". The far side of the Moon gets an equal amount of sunlight as the near side. The only time the far side is completely dark is when we have a full moon. Conversely, when we have a "New Moon", the far side is 100% sunlit.

...and please explain what you mean by "artificial rotation"
