Last night as I drove by the building where it was built at Cedar Park, I looked up a the moon where it now sits. Blew me away. Yeah. And the Stars won, 4-0.

really!?? The shadows of the clefs on the surface are compatible the light reflection off the surface, but the shadow of the lander is the opposite direction!!

I call BULLSHIT on yet another NASA “picture”.

And no where in the text does it state this farce is an artist rendition...

and PS.... the earth in the background is fake as well... with the direction of the light reflection on the moon’s surface the earth should appear as a cresent with the top half lit up...
