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

My mistake.  Looks like you're both right, I have the wrong location.

More valuable time....

Hey, but this is fun man.  I'm having a ball

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.

How do you know if it's a shadow or a darker area of the ground?

I still say there both anomalies and not craters.

I still say they are both craters.

Now we need someone that says that the first is a crater and the other is an anomaly and someone that says that the first is an anomaly and the other is a crater, that way we have all the possibilities covered and we can be sure that we, collectively, can only be right.

PS: and yes, it's fun, at least I think it is.

Well I agree with ArMaP that the first is a crater.  The second one LOOKS like a tea cup though.  It could be an optical illusion.  Imagine how big the tea pot must be. 

Can anyone find a better resolution picture of that crater?  I'm feeling lazy.

ETA:  Yeah, it is fun.

Well we have a new shiny thing NASA found and reported on Mars

Seems they are on our side now... they even 'white correct' images no so they look like what we see on earth

"times they are a changing..."

"The second version, linked to the main version, shows the colors modified as if the scene were transported to Earth and illuminated by terrestrial sunlight. "




LOL "terrestrial sunlight"

What Mars has a different sun that us now?

[Pimander]

Now they admit what colour Mars looks they can more easily release pictures mocked up on Earth.

No, a different atmosphere, as you know, silly lemming leader.

But yes, things look slightly different at NASA in this mission, I don't know if there was a change of staff related to Mars missions or if that's just an evolution.

Maybe they read some of our threads and decided to calibrate better?

Things were always well calibrated, you just had to use the right images.

Back to the topic, I think the "tea cup" is the double crater in the centre of Einthoven crater.



Closer view.


PS: I rotated the photo, so north is at the bottom and south at the top, so it aligns better to the Lunar Orbiter image.

[Pimander]

It just doesn't look as interesting on this image.  Why do the old Orbiter shots look as if the have more sharp edges?  A lot of the one we have used look like paper mache ruffed up with a fork.
