10 mile spacecraft and 60 mile highway discovered in 1968 moon photo?

A 1968 photo taken during a Lunar Orbiter mission to the moon shows what appears to be a spacecraft that is at least 10 miles (16 km) long resting inside the Crater Manlius. The photo was the subject of a Youtube video that was released on October 4 that shows various close ups and light contrasts of the apparent spacecraft. Most of the object is well illuminated by the sun, but the rest is in the shadows of the crater which is approximately 20 miles (34 km) in diameter, What appears to be a spacecraft cockpit is in shadows. According to an October 5 blog post on UFO Sightings Daily, the object is a UFO that was being secretly studied by NASA, and the real target for upcoming Apollo moon missions. Exopolitics.org The apparent spacecraft was photographed by Lunar Orbiter III (frame 3073) that was sent in 1967 to map the moon for future Apollo missions. Prior to its October 2014 “rediscovery,” the UFO in the photo was discovered in October 2007 and discussed on an online forum where the consensus was that it was a spacecraft of some kind.

Uh, yes... can I get a ride now?

Not specifically referring to this story/images, but I know why some humans get so upset, bordering on anger occasionally.

Many harbor substantial fear. Anything different outside their world is bad mumbo. This is the end and the beginning. Everything they ever knew. It's just impossible and doesn't exist because were so important and all knowing here on our microscopic point of dust.

BTW, this is one of my favorite images of Mars.

Clouds Over Crater Rim

11/17/04

Clouds above the rim of "Endurance Crater" in this image from NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity can remind the viewer that Mars, our celestial neighbor, is subject to weather.

On Earth, clouds like these would be referred to as "cirrus" or the aptly nicknamed "mares' tails." These clouds occur in a region of strong vertical shear. The cloud particles (ice in this martian case) fall out, and get dragged along away from the location where they originally condensed, forming characteristic streamers. Opportunity took this picture with its navigation camera during the rover's 269th martian day (Oct. 26, 2004).

The mission's atmospheric science team is studying cloud observations to deduce seasonal and time-of-day behavior of the clouds. This helps them gain a better understanding of processes that control cloud formation.

One photon torpedo from the Enterprise could turn all of those to rubble. :D

#77 we are talking about a police box that is bigger on the inside that travels through time and space.....

I can easily believe that. Those police boxes are roomy and seem so old fashion that you would think they are from another time and place..

Could be ice?

[Idaho_Cowboy]

Since FR isn't quite as ‘low-info’ I don't think there is a much of a chance this will be taken for first-class journalism; even if they did more research than Dan Rather.

This is neither hugh nor series so put down the beber like device...

Utilizer, you’re new. Sit back, relax and put down the bong

Not as long as they remembered to shield the 2-meter wide auxiliary thermal exhaust shaft.

Photon Torpedo would make another crater hole in the Death Star. Or, just make it’s own exhaust port.

No wonder the Empire fell. Should have stuck to building Star Destroyers, much cheaper to build.

*snort* The fact that you think I’m “new” says that I need not spend any more time attempting to reason with you. Anyone who feels that not doing a simple fact-check before opening their pie-hole says it all. According to your profile page, I was here roughly nine years before you, so don’t bother replying as I am certain any more dribbles coming from you will be similarly lacking in facts.

Oh yes, and say hello to Mr. TwitFilter, AlGore.

So NASA now has some sort of a tool for creating ancient-appearing artifacts on other planets???

It's not an artifact and it's not ancient - it's a scratch on a rock made by a robotic tool designed to scratch rocks.

And how did the alien spacecraft become blue, in a black and white photo?

Elvis .... actually a homosexual?

Was there ever any doubt?

Lizard aliens have taken over key positions in all the world’s governments?

YOu didn’t know this?
Where have you been?
Mars? They haven’t taken over there yet.
