When I first started to be a radio broadcaster my boss was telling me that I should smile when I talk because people can hear you smiling. Kind of weird even though you can't see them smile but you can hear them smile. And when I did smile when I talked you can tell my audience when they called me at the station we're happy to hear my voice while I played music.
As an image analyst for 35 years... the trick is to place the image so the shadows are directed towards the viewer. Once you start viewing images using this process, you will immediately recognize what we call "ground truth". Never look with shadows to the side or running upwards.
did you use the "light tables" to look a sat recon? I lived in Hawaii back in the 80's and one of the jobs I had after I got out of the army was to repair/maintain/upgrade those tables at a couple of the analyst facilities on Oahu.

If the rock & soil is really only 20 miles deep & is the same age as the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter & if it couldn't be natural because it couldn't be that big & far away yet still captured by are gravity then this would tell a different story & may be why the moon rocks were stolen from NASA. Sort of like bones of giants sent to museums have always disappeared out the backdoor. A space station around the moon would answer this question by whether it mysteriously disappears.

Will someone please explain how vast majority of craters look si circular. Some impacts must have been angled and oval or just linear smudges if the huge projectiles bounced off. They're not lying in bits are they? And almost perfectly circular depression shallow beyond feasibility. How many km across Relative to depth? LOOK ITS MORE LIKE LIGHTNING ON A BEACH. Very similar patterns made. This projectile evidence isn't apparently very... Compelling. Hard to believe it honestly. Think about it. when spinning objects get hit by other roundish meteor/asteroid 90degrees always making most circular yet Shallow!? YOU HAVING A LAUGH...?
@GazMasonik Scott Manley has a video about this very topic. Isaac Newton actually developed the equation that describes the relationship between the impactor and the crater depth. The relationship between the impact, and crater eccentricity, was not developed until more recently. Basically, the answer is that the development of eccentric craters is a self-limiting processes. The resistance of the material tends to spread out the force of impact - regardless of impact angle. Scott's video goes into much more depth.
It's the joy of finding conclusion through all the scientific hypotheses. I get that way when a fact is discovered through long periods scientific research & hypothesis.
I have a very large 14” telescope. Get to see many deep space sights. Our lowly moon, especially in part phase, where you see the terminator contrasts, is just stunning every time.
Fascinating. Q: Do you know how those strikingly parallel lines were formed that emerge near Tycho and head towards the Kepler crater? They look like part of Tycho's ray system but then they remain parallel, like tramlines, rather than diverging like all the rest.

Love your videos I have a really dumb question.. why don’t moons spin like planets ? Possibly a new video I don’t know just learning about this stuff?. Thanks again
The Moon does spin: and it does at the exact same rate that it orbits around the Earth, ie once every 28 days. And of course, that's no coincidence: most moons in the solar system rotate that way, due to a process called tidal locking.
Alex is about the only guy who says something like "...and i'll tell you what it is you are looking at" and I dont wanna give him a black eye for attempting to patronise me :)
Seems to me like we should set up some “moon national parks” for the most beautiful areas, before the space mining companies show up, and the place starts to look like a West Virginia coal mine....
There's is not going to be a lot of mining on the moon because it will cost much more then mining the same material on earth! The only reason there might be extensive mining on the moon is for materials to be mined and processed in space for space, while will not be for hundreds of years, and the US will not last that long! Every year, it is questionable if it will last another year! A civil war is coming, between evil, wicked, treasonous, fascist Republicans and the real patriots!
Explain to me : how the mass of the moon allowed it to be captured by Earths atmosphere, how it’s nearly a billion years older than Earth, it’s exactly 1/400 the size of the sun and 400 times closer to the Earth than the Sun in order for us to get a lunar eclipse, it’s likely hollow since it rings like a bell when the Apollo lander was ejected on to the surface, it has a near perfect circular orbit of the earth, and even weirder, it is in tidal lock with the Earth, so as it orbits and rotates at just the right rate so that we only see only one side of the moon as it rotates…..the moon is not what it appears to be….the damn thing’s been engineered.
The best current theory is the Moon was not captured. Rather, the Earth was struck by another planetary body, and the moon coalesced from the debris. The Moon is not older than the Earth. I have no idea where you got that idea. The relative size and distance is coincidental to the time in which we live. Over time, the Moon is moving away from the Earth. Total solar eclipses will end in about 560 million years. The Moon can't be hollow. If it were, it would not be massive enough for us to orbit spacecraft around it. Not to mention it would collapse in on itself. Orbits tend to become less elliptical and more round over time. Tidal locking is very common. All of the largest moons in the solar system are tidally locked, and Mercury is tidally locked to the Sun.
@@toddmoore9841 read “Who Built the Moon” by Butler and Knight. It’s not a book of woo woo theory but authors use mathematics to demonstrate the highly unlikely mathematical coincidences with the Earth, Moon and Sun.
@@hertzair1186 I checked out the Amazon review for this book. I don't enjoy being dismissive, but it is pseudoscience. Personally, I spent too much of my life studying the real thing to waste my time on it. The authors seem to be pushing numerology and conspiratorial thinking. I don't want to presume the authors' motives, but the human brain evolved to spot patterns everywhere, so we see patterns even where they don't exist. You would need some pretty rock-solid evidence for the Moon being fabricated, a lot more than some misunderstood facts and contrived math.
@@toddmoore9841 …I understand and respect your pragmatic thinking on the subject. But at the minimum, the moon is utterly bizarre in my opinion. If it formed from the collision of Earth and another astronomical body, the rarity of the nearly perfect circular Earth orbit, the 1/400 the size of the Sun with its 400 times closer to the Earth than the Sun, and the tidal lock…all the result of a collision….seems utterly beyond chance to me.
When I was eleven years old I wanted to be an astronaut, visit this amazing world and his remarkable landscapes!!! Many times my favorite video❤❤❤👍👍👍💕💕💕
From what I understand the surface is pretty much powdered obsidian, from being bombarded by rock melting impacts (except for the actual native rock formations). That is why its so shiny. its surface is mostly glass. So... you are probably right that without asteroid impacts it would be a darker object.
Great video and a fantastic cannel. Thank you for all you do. To your knowledge, has any work been conducted to match Lunar meteorites found on earth with specific craters on the moon? One would think the larger impact craters produced sufficient energy to blast the molten soil out of the moon's orbit. Lastly, would impacts on the dark side of the moon be as likely to produce Lunar meteorites as equal-sized impacts on the front? Perhaps we don't have enough information on the Lunar soil to differentiate.

Cool video. I will have to look up that orbiter thing. About that, is it mapping the same path repeatedly at any point? Assuming so, it would record new impacts.

@@Ligma.Johnson The photos that have been taken of the landing sites are crystal clear and were taken with the same satellite (LRO) you see above. However, the conspiracy nutjobs are not ever satisfied. Short of actually landing AT the actual landing sites the top-down view that we do have from the LRO do not have the resolution to see close up details at those sites. However, it is easy to see the bottom portion of the LEM and the rover tracks left on the surface of the moon.
As usual wonderful photos Alex. So the moon is not just a big pile of rocks, it's a battered pile of rocks. What I mean is it really is an aggregate of different material that is not stratified so much as the Earth. It doesn't have an iron core it rings like a bell when it is struck which they say means it is simply dry all the way through no water is there to dampen its vibration. So you can say it is a big pile of rocks and certainly it is big but it is also interesting.
@Lost Aquarian It's a known scientific fact that the moon is hollow. They crashed the lunar module into the moon on more than one occasion and it vibrated like a bell for hours.

Yea I agree. There should be ways to make sure the commercials are not shown to you. I also agree that when a game becomes more aggravation then fun, it's time to quit. Besides I can remember a lot of 10 loses in a row, but I never remember 10 wins in a row.

Alex sounds like he’s smiling whenever he speaks
Will someone please explain how vast majority of craters look si circular. Some impacts must have been angled and oval or just linear smudges if the huge projectiles bounced off. They're not lying in bits are they? And almost perfectly circular depression shallow beyond feasibility. How many km across Relative to depth? LOOK ITS MORE LIKE LIGHTNING ON A BEACH. Very similar patterns made. This projectile evidence isn't apparently very... Compelling. Hard to believe it honestly. Think about it. when spinning objects get hit by other roundish meteor/asteroid 90degrees always making most circular yet Shallow!? YOU HAVING A LAUGH...?
@GazMasonik Scott Manley has a video about this very topic. Isaac Newton actually developed the equation that describes the relationship between the impactor and the crater depth. The relationship between the impact, and crater eccentricity, was not developed until more recently.
Basically, the answer is that the development of eccentric craters is a self-limiting processes. The resistance of the material tends to spread out the force of impact - regardless of impact angle.
Scott's video goes into much more depth.
It subconsciously makes you feel happy even though you can't see his mouth
It's the joy of finding conclusion through all the scientific hypotheses.

Thankyou for these pictures and your commentry. With my three inch I can see the peaks on the horizon.
It’s amazing how wild the perspectives can seem on the moon
If we ever live there one day it’s going to be wierd to look at through binoculars
When he stated the size of these craters, and their depths, I could imagine how tiny a man standing on the rim would be. Maybe too small to even see?
*let's look at another crater*
Really though, great video. There's so much that could be done with the moon!
its already been done by other civilizations and left for an open minded generation to explore one day.
Love watching your videos. Thank you for all the work that you put into them. Your fans appreciate it.

There is no darkside of the moon, really. As a matter of fact, its all dark. PF
The dark side name is certainly misleading.
Got to love that Electric Universe model.
Fascinating. Q: Do you know how those strikingly parallel lines were formed that emerge near Tycho and head towards the Kepler crater? They look like part of Tycho's ray system but then they remain parallel, like tramlines, rather than diverging like all the rest.
Some of those terrains show clear Clanger habitation, quite possible Soup Dragon infestations.
Great immages, thank you. Can you make another video about the strange photos they took from almost
building or man made structures like objects they found on the moon?
Pretty amazing what you see when you have images this clear and detailed.

great video,t thank you for sharing it. Looking forward to more presentations hopefully in COLOR and oh yeah the interesting triangular and rectangular structures around Cupernicus crater and all the wonderful lights generated within Aristarchus crater and so much more. Thank you.
Love your videos I have a really dumb question.. why don’t moons spin like planets ? Possibly a new video I don’t know just learning about this stuff?. Thanks again
The Moon does spin: and it does at the exact same rate that it orbits around the Earth, ie once every 28 days. And of course, that's no coincidence: most moons in the solar system rotate that way, due to a process called tidal locking.
killin it as usual Alex! My only wish is that Elon Musk gifts you a ticket up there so you can upload a video about it...

Seems to me like we should set up some “moon national parks” for the most beautiful areas, before the space mining companies show up, and the place starts to look like a West Virginia coal mine....
im sorry but what can we even mine on the moon? rock?
There's is not going to be a lot of mining on the moon because it will cost much more then mining the same material on earth! The only reason there might be extensive mining on the moon is for materials to be mined and processed in space for space, while will not be for hundreds of years, and the US will not last that long! Every year, it is questionable if it will last another year! A civil war is coming, between evil, wicked, treasonous, fascist Republicans and the real patriots!

Cool. You should add a key or object for scale when zoomed into pics
If you know the crater name, the info is available.
Explain to me : how the mass of the moon allowed it to be captured by Earths atmosphere, how it’s nearly a billion years older than Earth, it’s exactly 1/400 the size of the sun and 400 times closer to the Earth than the Sun in order for us to get a lunar eclipse, it’s likely hollow since it rings like a bell when the Apollo lander was ejected on to the surface, it has a near perfect circular orbit of the earth, and even weirder, it is in tidal lock with the Earth, so as it orbits and rotates at just the right rate so that we only see only one side of the moon as it rotates…..the moon is not what it appears to be….the damn thing’s been engineered.
Un-answerable !!!
The best current theory is the Moon was not captured. Rather, the Earth was struck by another planetary body, and the moon coalesced from the debris.
The Moon is not older than the Earth. I have no idea where you got that idea.
The relative size and distance is coincidental to the time in which we live. Over time, the Moon is moving away from the Earth. Total solar eclipses will end in about 560 million years.
The Moon can't be hollow. If it were, it would not be massive enough for us to orbit spacecraft around it. Not to mention it would collapse in on itself.
Orbits tend to become less elliptical and more round over time.
Tidal locking is very common. All of the largest moons in the solar system are tidally locked, and Mercury is tidally locked to the Sun.
@@toddmoore9841 read “Who Built the Moon” by Butler and Knight. It’s not a book of woo woo theory but authors use mathematics to demonstrate the highly unlikely mathematical coincidences with the Earth, Moon and Sun.
@@hertzair1186 I checked out the Amazon review for this book. I don't enjoy being dismissive, but it is pseudoscience. Personally, I spent too much of my life studying the real thing to waste my time on it. The authors seem to be pushing numerology and conspiratorial thinking. I don't want to presume the authors' motives, but the human brain evolved to spot patterns everywhere, so we see patterns even where they don't exist. You would need some pretty rock-solid evidence for the Moon being fabricated, a lot more than some misunderstood facts and contrived math.
@@toddmoore9841 …I understand and respect your pragmatic thinking on the subject. But at the minimum, the moon is utterly bizarre in my opinion. If it formed from the collision of Earth and another astronomical body, the rarity of the nearly perfect circular Earth orbit, the 1/400 the size of the Sun with its 400 times closer to the Earth than the Sun, and the tidal lock…all the result of a collision….seems utterly beyond chance to me.
When I was eleven years old I wanted to be an astronaut, visit this amazing world and his remarkable landscapes!!! Many times my favorite video❤❤❤👍👍👍💕💕💕
Truly amazing images, well presented.
Each of these craters represents a rock which hit the moon and not us. Thank you Moon. 🌕
Gordon Chin - Most represent hydro-volcanic eruptions... like boiling plaster of paris. Thanks anyway, Moon.
Same amount hit earth , if not more. The earth just resurfaces itself through plate tectonics
Why would you think that every meteorite that's ever collided with the moon, would otherwise have hit the earth?
It's sad that we don't have cities on the moon ! We are not making good use of our assets !
We do.
Beautiful and informative too///thanks for sharing!
It seems that if the moon wasn't always hit buy asteroids it would eventually darken it wouldn't give us much light
From what I understand the surface is pretty much powdered obsidian, from being bombarded by rock melting impacts (except for the actual native rock formations). That is why its so shiny. its surface is mostly glass. So... you are probably right that without asteroid impacts it would be a darker object.
Wtf
It doesn’t give light, as in emit. It reflects the light from the sun
J Andrews then what is all the light coming from the surface? 👀. If the lights are on, somebody’s home. You aren’t looking at the moon lol.
jak30341 are you saying you think the moon has its own light?
Excellent narration, enjoyed video. Now interested in more...
Great video and a fantastic cannel. Thank you for all you do. To your knowledge, has any work been conducted to match Lunar meteorites found on earth with specific craters on the moon? One would think the larger impact craters produced sufficient energy to blast the molten soil out of the moon's orbit. Lastly, would impacts on the dark side of the moon be as likely to produce Lunar meteorites as equal-sized impacts on the front? Perhaps we don't have enough information on the Lunar soil to differentiate.
If you think NASA walked on the surface of that light bulb in the sky....... 😔 nevermind

Cool video. I will have to look up that orbiter thing. About that, is it mapping the same path repeatedly at any point? Assuming so, it would record new impacts. I'd be interested in seeing what's hitting the moon now. Before and afters of a given spot could uncover even more information about the moon.
Yes, there are photos of the same location before and after meteor strikes.
I would have liked to see crystal clear images of the 6 moon landing sites!
I know me too!! Funny that isnt it 🤔 best we get is pictures that look like they were taken using a patato haha.
@@Ligma.Johnson The photos that have been taken of the landing sites are crystal clear and were taken with the same satellite (LRO) you see above. However, the conspiracy nutjobs are not ever satisfied. Short of actually landing AT the actual landing sites the top-down view that we do have from the LRO do not have the resolution to see close up details at those sites. However, it is easy to see the bottom portion of the LEM and the rover tracks left on the surface of the moon.
I enjoy your videos. :)
Thank you.
Time for a picnic on the moon while I hold my breath. 😵
I tried but I couldn't trick my brain to see the blotches as concave. I only see them as raised.

I can only see them as holes and i still don't know which one they are

As usual wonderful photos Alex. So the moon is not just a big pile of rocks, it's a battered pile of rocks. What I mean is it really is an aggregate of different material that is not stratified so much as the Earth. It doesn't have an iron core it rings like a bell when it is struck which they say means it is simply dry all the way through no water is there to dampen its vibration. So you can say it is a big pile of rocks and certainly it is big but it is also interesting.
Loved this video, keep them coming.
I think there's a lot more on the moon. Maybe someday we will know all its secrets 😉
@Lost Aquarian It's a known scientific fact that the moon is hollow. They crashed the lunar module into the moon on more than one occasion and it vibrated like a bell for hours.
Lunar geology has always facilitated me. If there was a way that I could actually go there to conduct studies it’d be wonderful, but I’d be in my ‘70s before that would even be possible. Sigh...
