I wasn't ignoring you 2inquisitive, but it is an interesting link with a lot of information. I will say so far (and I am still in the 19th century) we seem to be dealing with NEO's crossing the sun and TLPs (Transient Lunar Phenomena) rather than 'conventional' UFO's. The casual reader could easily think "Wow. All these guys saw UFO's. There must be something in it." Instead we have sometimes questionable (Let's not forget the Percival Lowell farce) observations of rare, but natural, astronomical phenomena.2inquisitive said:Ophiolite, here is a link to one website. It list reports extending far back into the
history of astronomy including observations by several famous astronomers.
btimsah said:I have said repeatedly that the object merely look's like it COULD be an artificially built structure. Toward the end of this response you admit you are the one close minded, so what's your point? I could only be wrong if the image was an optical illusion, though nobody has illustrated HOW it's an optical illusion, thus you have no explanation for these structures except to suggest I'm close minded, when I am not, and you admit you are the one close minded. Talk about madness.
btimsah said:I know you are not open-minded about it, but I am open minded about it. Thus reversing everything you said above rendering it completely useless.

We have established that these photographs resemble structures according to you. But to others they don't (to me for example). I don't believe your opinnion is of a higher value than anyone elses here unless you have somekind of training in landscape surveilance, interpretation of satelite photos or lunar geography.
So our oppinions are of equal value.
I have looked at the photos, and I can't see what you see. It's not because my mind isn't open to it, it's because I don't recognize the structures.
You hold that they may be structures, so prove this claim sufficiently for me to take it seriously.
"Thus, again you are too close-minded even attempt to offer an explanation."
The mere fact that I bothered to post here means that I am in someway willing to consider it. But I am being challenged to interpret these photos in a certain way with no criteria to work from and no basis. All I have are a couple of photos and a claim that they resemble structures.
It's not my job to offer an explanation, it's yours. YOU are making the claim not I.
"I am open to any natural explanation, none of which you or anyone else has given except, "a rock". That's not an explanation, that's just being stupid. Open minded in this case would be considering that it's something other than natural, which I have done. You have not, so again you're the one who IS close minded as you admitted. "
"A Rock" is just as good of a claim as "A Structure".
I might claim "Rock" because I know that there are rocks on the moon. And rocks can look very different and come in many shapes and sizes.
So what about "Structure"?
Are you realy open-minded about it? Will you admit that it might be nothing? If yes, then fine you are open-minded about it.
Will I admit that it might be a structure? Well... As I am not in any way trained to interpret these photos I'll say yes, judging from the photographs alone it could be structures. It could be entire cities aswell, it could be water, or it could be clouds. It could be things that are not supposed to be on the moon according to modern explanations.
So thats said and done, now fucking prove it or hold your claim.
Well sort of...btimsah said:The thing I think you need to understand is that these images are just like eye-witness testimony.
I assume you mean it's the only proof you have. Clearly it is not enough at the moment.It's the only "proof" we can have.
We are pretending not to see things? It's a game? hmm.If someone like you pretends not to see anything they just ask for more proof over and over again. It's a game, but I see through it.

If you have real proof even sceptics would believe. At the moment you have fuzzy images of what looks like natural formations.

Can you find the alien artifacts on this image. Walls, towers, pyramids, and more.. (warning large image)
This image was acquired on the Lunar Orbiter 2 Mission of nearside of the Moon (10 degrees N., 20 degrees W.).
Perhaps you are too close minded to accept those points...btimsah said:

?btimsah said:Nice try again, lol.. but no that's apart of the "whole game" I was referring too.
exsto_human said:Zooming in on an image does not make it higher quality... Infact it severely deteriorates the quality of an image making it almost indistinguishable.
Anyway, this was amusing for a time, but it bores me now.
Whatever you do don't drop out of junior high school because of some conspiracy theory about education and mind controll.
I remember when I was younger I also fantisized about life/signs of life on other planets and the moon. I wished aliens would take me up in their ufos and carry me off. But then I grew up and found other things much more interesting.
