VB-AS-Lobachevsky-A.jpgThe Lobachevsky Anomaly in HR (context image from AS 16-121-19407)134 visiteAn oblique view looking North-West at part of the wall of the crater Lobachevsky on the Lunar Far (or Dark) Side. It shows a small crater on Lobachevsky's wall with unusual streaks of dark material that appear to have originated from the lower rim of the structure and to have moved down toward the floor of Lobachevsky. This feature was first noticed by T. K. Mattingly, the Apollo 16 CMP, who described the darker streaks as probable lava flows (Mattingly, El-Baz, and Laidley, 1972).
However, the streaks can also be explained by the downslope movement of dark fragmental debris excavated from Lobachevsky's wall by the small crater. Closer to the lower border of the photograph is a bright area extending across Lobachevsky's rim. This area and other sinuous light-colored markings in the upper half of the photograph are on the periphery of an enormous field of light-colored swirls in this part of the Far-Side (El-Baz, 1972a).
The origin of the swirls is not well understood.

Un vero peccato che la NASA non abbia mai speso una parola per commentare questi rilievi Lunari così (a dir poco!) bizzarri...Lug 22, 2006

APOLLO 16 AS 16-122-19537.jpgAS 16-122-19537 - Rendez-Vous (3)110 visiteUn solo commento, per gli amanti dei dettagli ("dettagli" per modo di dire): questi tre frames sono stati scannerizzati dal Kipp Teague - un vero professionista, a cui dobbiamo fare tanto di cappello - e sono tutti e tre, come la NASA ci dice, in "natural colors". Già, ma la superficie della Luna, nel primo frame, è giallognola; nel secondo è verdastra mentre nel terzo è color grigio cenere.

E allora, senza scomodare Marte e lo Spazio Profondo, quali sono i "true colors" della Luna? Come fare a stabilirlo (ammesso che sia possibile, un giorno, arrivare a farlo)? Qual'è il "vero problema", cover-up a parte, della fotografia spaziale?

Note the very beaten-up condition of the aft paneling and compare with AS 16-113-18332, which shows the condition of the same area during EVA-1 at about 119:36:20 MT. Harald Kucharek notes that these panels can be seen to buckle in the first few seconds of liftoff".Apr 22, 2006
