Good grief, flerfer.
You can’t be serious, Shirley.
Yes, I am as serious as petrified wood. And don’t call me Shirley.!
Actually, Capricorn One landed on Mars. Sheila Jackson Lee could see the flag that O.J. Simpson planted there.
Stop lying.
OH was looking on Mars for the real killer.

Luv it! This is a veritable "connect-the-rocks" 2 + 2 = puzzle.
Well wherever the mysterious Light Mantle came from, it ended up in TL Valley. That's a fact. What are the odds?The “Light Mantle” has intrigued scientists for its high albedo, or reflectivity, but its origins remain unclear.
There must have been a runner involved...

The Light Mantle, which is a bright 5-kilometer-long (3.1 miles) streak emanating from the base of a 2-km-tall (1.2 miles) mountain called South Massif, was a key target for NASA's Apollo 17 mission in 1972. With geologist Harrison Schmitt as a member of the crew, Apollo 17 returned from the moon with 243.6 pounds (110.5 kilograms) of rock samples, including two core samples from the Light Mantle.There was so much material in the samples that some of it was kept away, stored and sealed, until the time came that scientists had better technology with which to study the samples.

The origin of the Light Mantle landslide is a mystery, partly because it is the only known landslide on the moon, meaning that we have nothing to compare it to. It's described as a "long run-out" landslide, as the debris that rolled down the mountain spilled out for a long way onto the Taurus-Littrow valley, but what carried it so far is also uncertain.
Using modern micro-CT scanning, which employed medical-level scans on the previously untouched core samples from the Light Mantle...
What caused the only known lunar landslide? Newly opened Apollo 17 moon samples may hold the answer
The inset really makes a great visual -- right between the eyes of the "Little Man" on the Moon (Jacob, for those who haven't been following the lunar analog trail). No wonder he's got that wry smile:
Interestingly, Rabbi Akiva[7] argued the word טוֹטֶפֶת ṭoṭepheth to be a combination of two foreign words: Tot meant "two" in the Coptic[a] language and Fot meant "two" in the "Afriki" language,[8] hence, tot and fot means "two and two", corresponding to the four compartments of the head-tefillin.[9] This would appear to be an early attempt at etymology.
Aderet [אַדֶּרֶת] is the word for Elijah's mantle, but the word first appears here:
Gen 25:25 And the first came out red, all over like an hairy garment [כאדרת שער]; and they called his name Esau.
"25:25" tags right back to the first light of Creation, being the 25th word of the Torah. Also that in the alterate dating for Creation (with Rosh Hashanah as 1 Nisan), Creation Day One was the 25th of.. Adar [אדר]. 🤔
God said, “Yehi ohr—Let there be light!” (Bereishit 1:3)The “Light Mantle” has intrigued scientists for its high albedo, or reflectivity, but its origins remain unclear.The Hebrew word “yehi” translates as “let there be,” but the entire phrase can also be read as an equation: yehi = ohr, that is, yehi is the ohr. The word itself can be converted into a gematria of 10+5+10, which has a total of 25, making the phrase read: twenty-five equals light. Even the 25th word in the Torah is “light.”
Tiny, highly abrasive, and likes to stick to things.
The “petrified wood” story comes from a gag gift given to a diplomat in Denmark. It was one tiny piece of petrified wood. There are several hundred pounds of lunar samples. They aren’t “all fake” and aren’t all “petrified wood”.
One of the interesting things I learned during my aerospace career was that there were billions for missions but little funding to analyze data from the missions.
A lot of analysis is performed by students writing papers.
For example, one of my sons was studying geology. Using photos from the Mars orbiter, he found glacial moraines which was evidence of water locked in permafrost.
He published a year before NASA published the same findings.
I personally interviewed the scientists working on the Allen Hills meteorite from Mars. Their evidence of bacterial life was even stronger than what they published.
I also was gifted some Lunar regolith simulant which was created using data from soil samples returned. My eight year old daughter used it for her science project.
She showed that Lunar soil could not grow cabbages without removing the natural salt. On Earth, rain removes salt.
Original science from my eight year old daughter!

Scientists spent time and treasure in Antarctica finding Moon rocks. How would they know if they came from the moon?
Please do not let Fauci near them.
Planet or moon of origin is determined by isotope ratios. Every one is different.
