Interesting pics from Apollo 14 as I was trying to find a single rock with dust on it.

Check out the tracks here!

See anything odd?
Yup, it's a 4 wheeled vehicle that made a turn while fitting into a single wheel track!

As it's turning I'll say those tracks are from the front wheels, so where are the impressions of the back wheels in the turn? As it only had 2 wheel steer these tracks are impossible.

those tracks are not from the rover but from a hand pulled cart. I see no problem with the tracks.


It's also an interesting image if you save it to disk and check it out with an image editor. If you play with the blacks you'll see the 'sky' is not uniform at all, but looks exactly like a grid, in fact there's a vertical line that goes all the way up about 70% across. This is exactly what you'd find in the back of a soundstage for the backdrop projection screen.

Of course you tried this with the uncompressed hi res, right? And not the highly compressed jpeg? Could the line be from the scanner?

It's also not certain what type of sun can cause two parallel lens flares - out solar system is not a binary system as far as I'm aware.
 Quoting: Drone#6

looks like dust on the lens and not a lens flare to me.

Here's a nicely dusted moon rock. Given that there's nothing to disturb dust on the moon this should have the same many inches of dust on it as the ground does. Gravity is also lower (1/6th) so the super-sticky dust (NASA's explanation of why their damp grey sand / moon dust) makes footprints in a vacuum) should adhere well to this.
Obviously the Lunar Cleaning Company (LCC Inc.) has cleared it off with their special 'Earth Weather' process.

so moon quakes are no longer a thing?


This 'sky' has also been digitally washed to be clean, NASA have been systematically revising their online photo library to eliminate these issues that give the 1960s fakery away.
It's a bit pot luck today to find a good rendition of the back projection screen, but when you do it's all the more rewarding. The older digital copies are better for this.
