People,
Right around 2:12 minutes/seconds it shows the crater Tyco and a closeup of its peak. I was dumbfounded, which isn't hard for me because I'm dumb in the first place.
And then from 4:12 - 4:29 you get to see a nice shot of the Moon's North pole. I had never seen it from above. All the craters are dark because The Sun's rays are sidelong; The Sun can't shine on The Moon's North Pole, nor on The Moon's South Pole.
Anyway, there are more things, too.

Do you perceive, if this is even real in the first place (...), a thinning of the surface strata at these points like unto Mars' in our previous discussions from the remarkable photos, etc. therefrom?
Soretna,
The Moon is so small anyway that the whole crust must be smoother, except for the craters.
But I will say that the area around the poles seems to be thinner.
Also, that there is no inward-sloping at the lunar poles. (like an apple at the stem) The circularity of the Moon is constant, even through a telescope.
But then there are those craters right at the poles, whose floors we don't really know about, and have never seen because of the darkness. I know that, at the south poles, some of them seem to have cave-like sideway entrances that lead down gradually, and which don't seem to be like holes drilled straight down.
It is hard to tell, and crater floors could be doctored up by a spray artist.

Very cool video. There is a lot about the moon we don't know yet.
thanks

Most Scientists are baffled about the Moon's very existence and it's clockworkl like behavior. Others including myself know that the Moon is not a random chance event. But designed by an architect be it Mother Nature, God, an Alien or other entity.
@Keith have you read Dr. Pari Spolter's books?
@deandddd Very interesting video. I'm always wary of anything posted by NASA (AKA LIARS), but this is still intriguing footage nonetheless. I wonder if there's an interior of the moon which is actually hospitable and/or inhabited? Similar to the interior of the earth.

People,
Speaking of lunar closeups, here is a nice closeup of the crater Gassendi. Do you think it is a good one? Would you be ready to arrive at a conclusion or two from this image, and then move on?
Unfortunately, probably so. But it is not such a good image.
Even from 8 inch diameter, backyard telescopes, if the light's angle is appropriate, one can see ramps traveling up alongside the inner crater walls of Gassendi. This image was taken when The Sun was overhead, and thus the inner walls are all whited-out by glare. But they reduced the overall glare enough so that you at least get to see some details on the floor of the crater, so you think you're getting something out of it. Since the inner walls catch more photons bouncing around, they are proportionately more illuminated such that, even though you can see some detail on the crater floor, the adjustment of glare is so right that you still can't see the details on the inner walls; they left in the glare on the inner walls.
Tricky, aren't they.

For easier viewing, here's a full resolution JPEG image of the PDF you attached:
Where did you get the original image from that you included as a PDF? I assume it was a NASA or some governmental agency image...
Do you think you could capture some shots (with your telescope) of what you're referring to with regards to seeing the "ramps traveling up alongside the inner crater walls?" That would be really interesting...
Soretna,
That image came from the old allplanets-hollow file, but I found the source, the LROC page. It is the second one down.

There are some images taken froom the Earth by a freelancer, Damion Peach: http://www.damianpeach.com/lunar16.htm
His images show better inner rim definition than the LROC orbiter flying right above it. This guy Peach is good!
Langrenus shows good inner rim definition and there is a driveable trail starting from about 6:30 or 7 o'clock, that is short, and becomes flush with the surface at 9 o'clock at the latest.
I feel that a ramp can be seen on the Copernicus image, not "Copernicus at full Moon", but just below there is the Copernicus title, just "Copernicus". The ramp starts at 6 o'clock and goes along the left, then becomes flush with the surface at about 11:00 or 11:30.
I will upload two images and scratch some lines so that you can see what I mean.
Dean
The Langrenous image is above.
On the left I scratched out two trails on the left, I circled a "V" at 9 o'clock, and at top I circled what seems to be a circular cave opening.
Do comment all you want.
Dean
Well, I scratched two trails on the Copernicus image. To tell the truth, the one on the left has a nice, flat surface most of the way.
Dean
Why would they turn the comments off? Hmm...
List Members,
Since we are considering artificial artifacts on the surface of the Moon, such as ramps, let's compare a Lunar Orbiter 5 image with a Google Moon image of the same point.
First, the Lunar Orbiter 5 image with a circle drew is attached. And I'll send along the Google Moon image in a second posting right away.
In the attached image, some craterlets on the left have been circled to give you a point of reference, and just look at that opening on the right, it is so unreal. What an opening! To be so big, it must go deep and, therefore, qualities as the entrance to a Lunar cavern world, or straight through to the hollow Moon.
The Youtube video is here:
Part 7 ...
Dean
List Members,
Attached is a Google Moon image of the same Crater Zeeman. Notice the craterlets on the left for reference.
What else can I say ?
Dean
I have done extensive imaging of moon images and can confirm that most craters have fortifications along the edges that are mostly buried just under the surface. You will notice that many artificial tunnels and protrusions jet out from inside the craters edge and hide flow of debri and possibly water etc to the bottom where fusion occurs. The areas are hidden with image interference and shadows...
M
Michaell,
What an interewsting observation. Yes, the craters do seem to be irregular along thge edges.
The crater Walther even seems to have a tunnel that opens up onto the crater floor, at just about 12:30 or 1:00 o´clock.
And the crater Gassendi has a portion of the edge which is smoothed out for some reason, and it makes one wonder if it isn't an access point. This smoothed out break in the edge is seen directly opposite the ringlet crater, which is attached to the opposite edge, on the other side of the crater. And in some images one can make out a ramp of sorts that passes along the eastern side and opens out to the crater floor.
All of the stock photos show these things, if not one image, then the other.
Dean
@deandddd In reference to the post...
Here is Crookes Crater and shows machinary and tunnel to inner surface. Notice also the crater edge.
M
Michael and Everyone,
Words fail me!!!
Dean
Michael,
You know, even some of those houses that we saw in the image taken by Clemintine, of the Crater Tycho, could lead to a Capadocia-like world below.
