[quote:UsfighterNH 7155446:MV8yMTk2ODc0XzQxMjVEQzA1] This has been posted on here before but when I looked at the crater myself I was blown away at how clear structures are. Best to view with a larger monitor but load up Google Moon, go to Tycho Crater and zoom in to the northwest crater rim second from the outside. As you zoom in you will see what looks like clusters of rocks but if you use the measuring tool you will see these are very large, and rectangular, objects. There are structures all over the crater but seems like the "cities" are mostly in the northwest corner. There is pixilation but if you look at the imagery you'll see that even though there is pixilation there are clearly building everywhere and in clusters. You can even make out streets! The area at 42:22:42 Lattitude by 12:18:40 Longitude view from 10,000 eye level is particularly clear. Drag yourself away from N Korea news for a moment and check it out. Why more people aren't discussing this I have no idea! [/quote]
