Tyler: Apollo 8 flyby of the lunar farside...

Hi Tyler, my cropped processed image was obtained from the original 5,834K NASA source image AS8-12-2192. in GRIN-Greatest Images In NASA.

Note the 5,834K source image takes awhile to load. Here is a faster-loading smaller version of the source image:



The crater with the "skull" is located in the extreme lower-left-side of the source image; the crater is in the lower left-corner of the image almost abutting the left side of the image.

The title of this Apollo 8 image is "The Lunar Farside." NASA's description of the image is:

View of the lunar surface taken from the Apollo 8 spacecraft looking southward from high altitude across the Southern Sea. The bright-rayed crater near the horizon is located near 130 degrees east longitude and 70 degrees south latitude. The dark floored crater near the middle of the right side of the photograph is about 70 kilometers (45 statute miles) in diameter. Both features are beyond the eastern limb of the Moon as viewed from earth; neither has a name.

Here is my cropped processed image of a crater on the lower-left-side of the NASA source image:



There appears to be a large skull or possibly a sculpted artifact looking up from the crater. The crater looks artificially worked and its sides are unnaturally rectilinear as depicted by the yellow line drawn parallel to the right side of the crater.

Cheers, :)
