Red face Re: Moon Week March 27th - April 5th 2009. International Year of Astronomy

again, sorry these arent the original size.
The original images are a bit easier to see...
but still.. no matter what i do with size/pixels or resolution..
this area will not focus like the rest of its surroundings...... surprise!!

Here are the 3 Craters again,
Archimedes, Autolycus, and Aristillus, along with the proximity of where we need to be looking.. (im pretty sure) lol



a bit closer...





and here is the edge/bottom of Autolycus crater,
along with the key area circled in red....


Even when I have it on its full, original size...
The surrounding areas can be zoomed in even further,
still clear enough to see fairly decent...

BUT.. No matter what you do.... Rima Hadley is not visible!
Not surprising really....
But i really thought (for a second) [silly me]...
that with this program i would at least be able to make out the mountains..
to at least be able to pinpoint it...
like i can with soo many other areas of the Moon.

No go.... lol.

Its interesting... How these images were taken from flying above the moon itself, very close...
( Much closer than JLW can get with his 12' mead)

Yet we have images from JLW and Gridkeeper , hundreds of times better than this junk!!

Thank god for folks Like JLW and Gridkeeper.. who actually care about the truth, and will put their own a$$es on the line just to bring us some truth.

You guys are a blessing. Thank you.



if you get bored.. try checking out that Lunar browser for yourself...

Dan. Im going to have to do a screengrab for you of that video....

there is no mistaking this image!!!
Love abounds.
