I'm short sighted, I suppose that could 'seen' in different ways, but could some one point me at these 'glass structures' or are they like Lowell's canals?

Summary: Richard C Hoagland's Lunar Freakout over incomplete and poorly researched data leads to insanely elaborate misinterpretation resulting in the 'Clementine whitepaper', claiming spectrographic proof of glass domes and dozens of anomalous structures on the lunar surface

I take it that this guy is some kind of a nut?

I referred to him as Hoaxland and got my ear hole burnt.

LOL. Ah, see...you were too clever.


Just call him a nut and be done with it!

Can't claim the credit Min, that's what he's called on the Net. But I certainly don't see anything in those pics that look 'man made' to me, do you? Does anybody?

It was the same crap with the Mars "Face" a few years back. A combination of low-res photography and shadows plus the human mind's apparent desire to make order out of chaos.

Hence all these nuts seeing jesus on a cheese sandwich!

Looks more like my late Labrador to me!

Yeah....I can see a Lab there. Of course my appreciation for art is somewhat limited, anyway.

I suspect that we are both similarly deficient then Min.

Hoagland is a great entertainer. i always enjoy his "views" when he is on Coast to Coast AM, but, unfortunately, nothing that he has ever predicted has been shown to be correct.

Min! You asked...
I take it that this guy is some kind of a nut?

If so, presumably a rather wealthy one. I note the 4th dimension rides again!

In an August 31, 1990, letter, Morrison told me that he knew of "no one in the scientific community, or who is associated with the NASA Mars Science Working Group, or who is working on Mars mission plans at such NASA centers as Ames, Johnson, or JPL, who ascribes even the smallest credibility to Hoagland or his weird ideas about Mars."

Ah...so just a self-promoting huckster. I'm surprised he hasn't founded a mega-church!



Hoaxland's ( I kind of like that!) "face on Mars....in a 2001 high-res photo.

I suppose he can't be blamed for letting his imagination run wild. The original 1976 photo did sort of look like a face...although why someone would create a monument looking up...where no one on the ground could see it....escapes me.
