In credinta m-am uitat in (prea) lunga-mi viata prin numeroase Celestroane cu monturi ecuatoriale,
StarDust - fara sa fi capatat insa lucrurile fagaduite.
Serios acum - fara sa fiu adeptul teoriei mascarii prin generare holografica a zonelor lunare "interesante" (de pe fatza asa-zis vizibila, evident), ramin la opinia ca rezolutia telescoapelor de amatori e mai mult decit insuficienta.
Interesant e insa faptul ca tipi la fel de curiosi ca JE n-au reusit sa vada macar o (1, una) imagine a Lunii luata de pilda cu maretul telescop al Observatorului de la Mount Palomar.

Pina la deschiderea topicului promis, uite insa o statistica a imaginilor luate de misiunile Apollo:

The Apollo Lunar image collection consists of the following.
Hasselblad handheld photography - color and b/w - common to all missions
Apollo 8: 860 photos, fewer than 30 are digitized faithfully.
Apollo 10: 1319 photos, fewer than 40.
Apollo 11: 1403 photos, fewer than 60.
Apollo 12: 1585 photos, fewer than 40.
Apollo 13: 585 photos, fewer than 20
Apollo 14: 1273 photos, fewer than 40.
Apollo 15: 2524 photos, fewer than 90.
Apollo 16: 2851 photos, fewer than 50.
Apollo 17: 3606 photos, fewer than 80.
~Out of the 16006 Hasselblad photos, fewer than 450 are digitized faithfully~
Metric and Panoramic photography - common only to Apollo 15, 16, and 17 -
Apollo 15: Metric: 2546 photos, fewer than 30 are digitized faithfully Panoramic: 1531 photos, fewer than 50. (**)
Apollo 16: Metric: 1938 photos, fewer than 30. Panoramic: 1596 photos, fewer than 30. (**)
Apollo 17: Metric: 1938 photos, fewer than 30. Panoramic: 1529 photos, fewer than 30. (**)
(** due to total size of the Pan images, most of these are sectional crops from the larger parent photos)
~Out of the 11078 Metric and Panoramic photos, fewer than 200 are digitized faithfully~
Of the 27084 total mission photographs, fewer than 650 are digitized faithfully.
(din totalul de 27.084 fotografii luate in misiunile Apollo, mai putin de 650 au fost digitalizate fidel)Concluzia logica (a mea cel putin): al naibii de greu au gasit baietii poze "convenabile".

(repet: spre deosebire de altii, eu chiar cred ca membrii misiunilor Apollo
au fost pe Luna)
Internetul imi da acum rateuri, asa ca revin mai incolo si cu alte transcripturi (oficiale) ale unor convorbiri cel putin ciudate dintre astronauti si Baza NASA - fiindca vad ca precedentul n-a avut vreun efect.
