file Lunar Pyramid at the Bottom of Sharonov Crater

9 years 5 months ago #1656 by Todd
Taken by the Apollo 16 panoramic camera, AS16-P-4109 shows the floor of Sharonov crater . On the crater floor is what could be considered a good candidate for a lunar pyramid, sitting among other unusual landforms. The stereo image, AS16-P-4114 , also shows the crater pyramid but I believe the angle and the exposure look better in 4109. The image below was processed from the AS16-P-4109 raw tif tile (Tile 2).

That crater has a lot of unusual features in it. Although it's obscured by the shadow of the center mound, I think there is another slightly larger pyramid right next to it.

Thank you to everyone who has stuck by the YouTube channel and to all of our admins and forum users here on the channel.   They really have kept the website current while I have been busy taking care of things in my personal life.   I promised that the next video would be a long one and have a LOT to look at.  You can get lost in these Gigapans and I really hope that you do!  I spent a lot of time stitching these together and making sure that they were the best quality that I could get them.  SOL 1448 really has been a goldmine for anomaly hunters and those people who are just hobbiest.  I really hope you enjoy this one and expect much more to come from the latest batches of images!
