Re: Interesting linear feature at apollo 14 site

Good grief, Dand and Michael Smith. You'd be calling that image as
illuminated by "a very low angle" ?

Is greater than 45° within your photographic cookbook considered as "a
very low angle" ?

Perhaps you folks simply do not realize there's a serious bunch of so
much closer look-see images to being had?
Would you like to see a few of those better examples?

BTW; it seems there's more than a single artifact bit worth of
terrestrial debris as having been imposed upon that composite image:

If you're still into thinking that your (a14_eva2trv.jpg) image
includeds a worthy artifact, try out these interesting Apollo-14 views
from orbit for size:

Personally, I thinking it's either suggesting a substantial volcanic or
geothermal/gas vent released as producing a cloud of lunar debris
and/or possibly the likes of a saltwater expansion/sublime explosive
event, as otherwise there's always the impact and subsequent debris of
their fly-by-rocket lander, as imaged shortly afer having bit the dust.

Not that other Apollo mission images as having been obtained from orbit
(robotic or supposedly manned) are not every bit if not more so
interesting, I'm just sharing for the moment of what this archive has
to offer from their Apollo-14 group. I suppose, because the A-14
mission was limited to just 34 orbits is why there's not a great many
more of such images as having been obttained from orbit for us to
review. Whereas 66.5 hours worth of 34 orbits might have limited their
solar illuminated pitchure taking to perhaps as few as 1,000 frames.
Don't bother asking where the heck all the other frames are.

BTW; here's another one of their pesky oops blue-screen frames:

A couple more of those pesky blue-screens to share and share alike:

Here's a few zig-zags that are quite believably interesting:

Another serious bunch of A-14 frames that actually looks as though
we've landed and walked upon the moon, that is if you pay absolutely no
attention whatsoever to the laws of physics, or even appreciate the
total lack of any composite mineral color as their xenon lamp spectrum
worth of terrestrial like photons relates to such natural (meaning side
by side identical color saturation and contrast to what's terrestrial)
photographic moments that rather suck and blow, especially since those
were essentially full spectrum, as in unfiltered Kodak moments as
supposedly obtained upon a dark and nasty (dark basalt of not nearly
coal like) 12% albedo moon that was supposedly receiving the raw solar
worth of illumination influx that had to have included a rather great
amount of UV energy/m2 which should have noticably skewed all such
frames towards being bluish.

Unfortunately, there's all sorts of nifty Apollo's stuff that's within
frame after frame, as color and albedo checks, thereby proving that the
moon upon which they'd landed was extensively 55~65% albedo worthy, and
otherwise looking exactly as though covered in a thin layer of 50/50
portland cement and cornmeal, though without ever so much as a
meteorite nor secondary impact shard to spare.
