  • I will be visiting the Aristarchus plateau between the head of the Vallis Schroteri, the Aristarchus Crater and Herodotus and the visit will probably be a two week long bus tour. If you want to see the aerospace technology for such a mission look at the Lunar Space Tourism movies on my channel. You like the place enough you might buy yourself a ticket when you can afford it. Aristarchus is the most scenic place on the Moon I think so its a good tourist destination.

  • I am not saying ALL was faked, but the Aristarchus fly over is not correct. This is MY favorite crater, and I made sure I collected ALL the best shots of it. The JAXA / SELENE version of their fly over is totally fake! If this was the closest shot, then the Hubble shots taken from over 200,000 miles away shows better details. If you were into Aristarchus as I am you would easily see the difference! I am emailing you some links just so you see what I mean. JE

  • I haven't a clue what your on about. So what if it is a CGI movie? It was based on actual scientific observations which are never perfect. Tell you what I'll find out for myself when I visit there in a flyover probably in about 15 years.

  • You've even edited the Hubble Aristarchus anim next to the fake JAXA footage. In the Hubble version, if you can take time to notice, it is different than the JAXA version. Look at the details of the Hubble photo as compared to the CGI Moon from JAXA. Where are the details of the 'snake head' area where you can see lots of details in the Hubble photo? JAXA has no details. Why? Because they used a CGI model. It's fake! The Hubble Aristarchus is what it really looks like. JE

  • I see you are well educated, Did you get your degree at Fock U?

  • I think the Japanese footage is CGI faked...
