No, our lander's base was left behind.

Yes, I realize that.

Go to the link I posted, grab the footage for the ascent and post ascent and you'll see that the shots posted on clip one are shots taken by a camera that the astronauts left behind for exactly that purpose.

Or don't.

They are similar, but I don't see anywhere in the footage where a picture is taken from the distance in the first picture, and the image quality and color seems differant in these ones.

Maybe your right, but the Russian video I captured those images from id's them as I wrote.

I see. I thought that you thought ..., well, nevermind.

You guys were right, I have asked the moderator to pull my original comments.

Apprently there was an error in translation on the part of the Russians, they were talking about Apollo 17 and their rover being in the same region of the moon, that was poorly worded and their pictures were poorly placed.

Sorry
