are these NASA images really real images? There could be a good chance that NASA may be using a new "Airbrushing" technique.
I have to commend you on (almost) bringing up the only possible argument that is on topic with this thread and that can't be proven one way or the other.
However, the airbrushing technique would have been a very old one, rather than a new one, as the NASA image is from 1967. I have a NASA publication, SP-200, "The Moon as viewed by Lunar Orbiter" from 1970. I took a look at the LO-3085 image in the book this morning just to be sure there was no question. There is no moon base on the image in the publication.
"If" someone at NASA doctored the image, it would have been prior to 1970.

If you used half of the enthusiasm to learn science as you devote to fantasy some college would accept you to a freshman entry for something. Now you are getting heated up and making wild stabs in anger, I suggest you have a beer and count to ten before you continue this thread to the next millennium. Maybe play a game of competitive darts, see how many you blindly throw actually stick in real life. Kind of judge your skill level at something anyway!
Not as far back as 1970, but by 1977 I was professionally airbrushing photographic prints myself

no one can prove that man-made or alien-made structures do not exist on the moon.
Ah... but that was not the premise of this thread. The thread was intended to fool people into thinking that the image in the video was somehow from Chang'e 2, which has been thoroughly debunkitized.
If the video forgot all about Chang'e 2 and proposed that the moon base was found in a never-before-seen version of LO-3085, and that NASA had released a doctored image to the public, then that would be something worth some discussion. However, there is no way to prove this unless there is something better than a youtube video of a most-likely Photoshopped version of LO-3085.
I'd love to see some good proof of NASA doctoring moon images, but this one aint it.
I am defending the idea that there could be structures on the moon for the simple fact of defense for some of the closed minded dogma that this hoax-thread has born.
There are 3 variables in every job, and you only get two of them. Time, quality, price. you can't get all 3 the way you wish, one has to give.
During a showing in 2006, a space expert told the Rijksmuseum it was unlikely that NASA would have handed out moon rocks so shortly after Apollo returned to Earth.

Not as far back as 1970, but by 1977 I was professionally airbrushing photographic prints myself (real photo retouching), the tools and media were there and can be controlled to a near photographic resolution, which for a typical negative is around 2600 dpi. But it is a very tedious process to do undetected even in grayscale, much more difficult in full color, and the fine brush needs to have a clear airflow, with near zero moisture from the air source. Mind numbing without a CO2 air source, even with moisture traps an air compressor is going to create condensation in your tubes, that one drop can ruin hours of work while the paint colors you mixed has dried on the palette.
One would have to be very skilled with state of the art equipment and lots of time to airbrush what Photoshop can do in digital image manipulation today in about a half an hour, but 10's of resolutions courser than traditional methods. You see those car airbrushed paint jobs that a skilled applicator would charge you 5 figures for a custom job, is like a fire hose with half the air pressure compared to a dentist tool in comparison. The stream of paint flowing from a fine airbrush can be measured in microns, and I can sign my name with one finer than a very sharp very hard pencil can do, though it always looks funny with no back pressure to touch helping your guidance.

Don't worry Illustronic, I have no idea why he keeps mentioning "dungeons and dragons" either.

I find it hilarious that "i know little about the moon," by stating the basic scientific widely accepted hypothesis for moon formation.
What the # has David Icke ever done?

Keep laughing at yourself, ya that's right, you really make a fool out of yourself, you have shown you know nothing about the Moon.
Icke is an excellent researcher who also interview people who are "in the know". www.youtube.com...
How about the other "Whistleblowers"? Are you going to falsely claim they are liars too?

Because you have no clue what's going on 'm0rphine'...
