Apollo Landing Sites Spotted in Sharp New Detail

The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter has captured new images of Apollo 12, 14, and 17's landing sites showing the lunar rover, tire tracks, descent stages and experiments, providing a new challenge for Moon-landing hoax believers.

@kyamicobo No, "they" don't. [They is you, by the way, if you're American, European, Canadian, Russian or Japanese.] Google Earth uses many different image sets, taken over a period of tears from satellites, aircraft and ground vehicles. These images are from one science probe in lunar orbit which hasn't been there very long. Sure, the military intel community has access to orbiting cameras that are probably an order of magnitude or so better. But there are no spy satellites orbiting the Moon.

@gofigurevideos No. Nor did they perform the alien autopsy.

you conspiracy idiots make me so fucking sick.

WE LANDED ON THE MOON. SIX TIMES.

IT'S OVER AND DONE.

@VideoFromSpace

Scatttering does not explain what we see.

I'll make a demonstration with the lander, the rover, and the tracks all correctly scaled, and I'll reduce to the scale we see on the photos to show the problem.

The rover tracks should not be visible, not as consistently visible as what we see on the photos.

@hunchbacked Think: scatter.

@VideoFromSpace

That would make only one pixel, not several pixels!



[VideoFromSpace]

@hunchbacked We applaud your method. But take it all the way: Consider the grey-scale of a single pixel containing some darkened information from shadows in two sets of rover tracks. Now compare that to the grey-scale of an adjacent pixel which contains no "track" information at all. There's your answer.

@VideoFromSpace

These lines would rather correspond with the total width of the rover, like the space between the tracks of the tires was also dark; but it isn't on the photos of the missions!

[hunchbacked]

@VideoFromSpace

So, the width of a track left by a tire is theoretically: 35*0.25/0.4=0.93 pixel, so less than a pixel.

Yet, the same tracks appear on the photo with a width of several pixels, I would say something like 10 pixels (difficult to appreciate exactly, but consistently more than one pixel).
