Doc Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 I was born in 1966 so it's been up there for as long as I've been around. What an amazing photo this is. Brantuk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAZ Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 Incredible resolution. One of my fav's is the lunar rover and foot prints from the LRO. http://sservi.nasa.gov/articles/lro-sees-apollo-15-rover-tracks/ Tweedledee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smithysteve Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 These are great photos guys! They are amazing shots! ? I did not think they could get down to that sort of resolution! Very interesting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweedledee Posted June 5, 2016 Author Share Posted June 5, 2016 Of course, they are all either photoshopped or are real alien artifacts and activities. It is marvellous that we can actually see this evidence of human activity on another world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAZ Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter has been sending all this good stuff back. The resolution is down to something like 15 metres now it has gone a bit lower. There is one of the big craters, Tyhco or Copernicus and you can zoom right in to the central mountain and see boulders which have rolled down the slopes.
