Author Topic: Strange-looking "Tower" observed on the Moon  (Read 892 times)

   Some months ago, I came across the "Tower" shown in the photo below.  It does not look like a natural formation to me (but could be I suppose).

A few days ago, I found a video claiming the coordinates for it, and stating  that it can be seen on
"GoogleMoon"  (an offshoot of GoogleEarth).

Here are the approx coords:  22deg 30min 20sec South  and 45deg 56min 40sec West.

My problem - on my older-model computer here, I'm not able to access GoogleMoon.  May try on my phone.  But - I would appreciate it if any of you can access GoogleMoon and try the above coordinates.  Please see whether you can verify this "Tower".  And what you think of it...

  Thanks, Grumpy - the article says it looks like an optical illusion - no actual tower.
As usual, I would like to see MORE DATA, from different angles.

   That was quick - thank you, Grumpy.
   Now let's add Ken Johnston's contributions.
   
   Ken Johnston was responsible for handling images coming from American moon-orbiters for a number of years.  According to his testimony (e.g., https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RgpmJWBGRwg&t=2140s   ), he was disturbed by what appeared to be “airbrushing” or  “smudging out” of certain images coming in from the moon-probes, by NASA employees, before these went out to the public. 
    In his position, he was able to retain a large humber of un-retouched images and more recently he managed to make them public after he was dismissed from NASA - some in his autobiography  and some in lectures and interviews available on youtube (see below).

   So, are these non-official images of any value?  I say yes, but with the understanding that we are going to have to make further observations to verify these structures on the moon.
