As promised in another thread... I thought all the images from Surveyor, Apollo etc. needed another place to go than the Mars Forum.
I will start the thing off with a link, not an image. I occasionally have images in Chuck Wood's Lunar Picture of the Day (LPOD) website, www.lpod.org. This URL: http://www.lpod.org/LPOD-2005-05-25.htm is my latest, a Clementine LWIR mosaic. The text accompanying the image explains how I made it. LWIR images from the PDS look useless but they can be made into very nice image strips. In most areas of the Moon they are the highest resolution images available, since the HIRES camera only functioned well over near-polar latitudes. So image junkies who want to see new scenery emerge from their computers can go wild! Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.

On the subject on the flashes some claimed to have observed on the Moon and Mars I always have thought those were phosphene flashes in the eyes of the visual observers due to darkness and the late hours they worked.
I think so especially since the few searches with photographic means yielded nothing, even when images were taken simultanously to a claim of a tranisent light, nothing could be seen on the plates. |

I think so especially since the few searches with photographic means yielded nothing, even when images were taken simultanously to a claim of a tranisent light, nothing could be seen on the plates. Well, the problem with flashes and old-style photography was that the exposures were just too darn long, and the flashes way too short - but recently there *have* been observation made with video cameras showing meteor impacts on the Moon during well-known meteor showers. There was an article in S&T a few years back which had some interesting arguments for the reality of the Mars flashes, too...
