This enigma was first brought to our attention by Braddman,
a member of ATS... thanks for the find!
The Case for Rocks:
Many say "They are just rocks..."
1) If they were anything other than rocks why would
NASA leave these in a whole set of images when we know that they "sanitize"
images?
2) Some of the anomalies on close inspection do indeed
look like they are rocks, albeit ones with very unique shapes.
The Case for Artifacts:
1) Richard Hoagland of Enterprise Mission has identified
them as metallic artifacts. That alone will convince many people...
2) There are many pieces of this puzzle that do not
fit the rock hypothesis. There are shapes and textures that are not consistent
with rock formations. while it is possible that rocks may form in other
crystallization patterns on the Moon, that seems highly unlikely.
Conclusion:
Until we find further evidence either way, this case
is open and requires further analysis. Because of this, the images on this
page are a collection of all the anomalies we found so far. They are presented
for study and no comments other than the labels will be added here.
We will leave it up to the reader to examine them for
themselves and make up their own minds. We are also currently seeking the
high resolution .tiff images to assist us in making a determination. |
