Possible Lunar Surface Anomalies Visible in 1102-H1 and AS11-41-6139

[Sgt.Rocknroll]

I was recently looking at all my past videos and wondering if I should re-shoot some and find more items than I previously had. I've said that while watching the published ones I could see some things that I missed. Plus in the early phase of my work I really didn't identify the photos I was using and the camera work was a little shaky (hand held cell phone). I'd like to think I've come a long way in creating these videos but who knows for sure. Anyway I was watching one of my earlier videos, 1102-h1 the mining operation video, that I noticed a familiar looking anomaly. I kept looking at it and saying to myself 'I've seen this thing before'. I found that on AS11-41-6139, that same object or at least something that appeared to be similar in shape. I decided that I'd get a better opinion so I'm posting them here and you guys let me know if I'm just 'seeing' things..lolol.

The first one is from 1102-H1



The second one is from AS11-41-6139



To me it looks like a spherical object sitting in a 'holder'. I see the same thing in both photos.
Am I imagining this? Let me know your thoughts.

Thats no imgining there, Rock...it seems like a broken sphere on a platform...like a teacup perhaps.

Definitely odd to say the least...ar there spherules on the Moon which are hollow?

Cool shot!

I think that's what they call "craters". 

[Sgt.Rocknroll]

Sorry ArMap, neither are 'craters' as you put it. They cast shadows on they're own without any surrounding items.

[Littleenki]

Rock's right, ArMaP...those arent craters...unless the sides are hollowed out, and the inside shell of them has been preserved like a teacup.

Rock, perhaps my old eyes are failing, but I see a spheroid shape sitting on top of a triangular shaped base; as to it being a crater, it must be an inverted one for it is definitely casting a shadow above that of the base...

I split this topic as it may be important.

Does that mean that you didn't see the other photo I posted of the area shown in AS11-41-6139, where we can see that those are craters?

Edit: This is what I was talking about.




If you provide a location for that "tea cup" I can try to find it in a different photo.

This one?

I have that one, as you can see on my previous post, what I need is the location of that small area in the Lunar Orbiter photo, as just looking for it makes it more difficult.

[Sgt.Rocknroll]

I've tried to point out the two craters you were talking about previously. We had this conversation before and we couldn't come to an agreement about what each of us was talking about
Anyway I've pointed out the two craters I think are on your photo and the object we were talking about.
This probably didn't clear up anything..lololol

Now I understand what you were saying at the time.

I hope this clears the situation.


PS: if you can put that image in the same perspective as the Apollo photo you will see that all the positions match.

[Pimander]

OK, I'll agree that the AS11-41-6139 is just a trick of the light.

Right, now the other picture (1102-H1).  It is on its side here in a picture from the Lunar Orbiter Photo Gallery on the LPI website.

Attached (below, click to enlarge) is the "Tea Cup" rotated 270⁰ then cropped using GIMP.  It looks a lot like a crater there I think.  What you saying Sarge?

[ArMaP]

I found the location of the "tea cup" in the full view, it's marked with an yellow circumference in the image below.



I think the "tea cup" is inside Einthoven crater.

Well Pimander, my friend, I say that you've got the wrong area. ArMaP has correctly located the 'tea cup' in his post. And if you use your photo and zoom in to that area you'll see that it's not a crater. It has rounded edges and cast a shadow on the crater that it's sitting in. I still say there both anomalies and not craters.
