Great post except for the Moon Hoax garbage video links. :rolleyes:

Aw, come on. All of the videos were great. So which ones are the garbage video links?

I tried them again, and they work fine. Maybe you should try again?

Yes. For nearly three hours.

No it did not make a hollow sound.
The "ring like a bell" was a simple figure of speech made by scientists who were taken by surprise at the unexpectedly long lasting seismic reverberations recorded by instruments left on the Moon during the Apollo mission when the ascent vehicle was intentionally crashed into the Moon after the astronauts return to the Command Module.

Specifically the idiotic Apollo 17 "Magic Moving Mound" video.
The one where NASA allegedly had a painted backdrop that was "exactly the same" in multiple shots although the astronauts had moved around with the camera.
That one.

I'm not on board with the consipiracy stuff, but that first video looked pretty fake. Was that an actual video?? The craters looked awfully flat.

But why did that mound move? I found it through looking at the Japanese videos, and it seems to back itself up with NASA confirmation via their site--however, to be truthful, I did not confirm with NASA's site picture frame by picture frame.

I was expecting Godzilla to pop out of one of those darkened craters myself, to be truthful.

The mound did not move.
The lack of perspective on the moon makes object scale and distances extremely difficult to determine.
You can be in different locations there and view or take a picture of distant objects and it will look like the background is exactly the same but there will be differences that can dbe determined in detail examinations.
People thought the same thing about "hills" in the background of Apollo 15 shots, but the hills were actually mountains.
Detailed comparison of the backgrounds claimed to be identical in fact show significant changes in the relative positions of the hills that are consistent with the claimed locations that the images were taken from.
Parallax effects clearly demonstrate that the images were taken from widely different locations around the landing sites.
Claims that the appearance of the background is identical while the foreground changes (for example, from a boulder strewn crater to the Lunar Module) are trivially explained when the images were taken from nearby locations, akin to seeing distant mountains appearing the same on Earth from locations that are hundreds of feet apart showing different foreground items.

The Selene image is digitally rendered from radar 3d imaging from an orbiting satellite, the Apollo 17 images were from TV and 70mm cameras on the surface.
They will not look the same.
The mound does not move.

I wonder if these were taken at the same studio as Apollo 11 was shot at?

It was a real shame the orbiter entered total shadow right before impact so we couldn't visually ride it all the way in.
It's impact plume was recorded from earth as they had hoped.

Looking at the video again, I think it was the lack of ambient light that made it look so fake. But that makes sense with there being no atmosphere.

Did you zoom it up to full screen?
The lighting is a bit disconcerting at first.
I think it is also the lack of color plus reference objects such as trees or towns and other common earth items that throws people way off at first.

Yes. For nearly three hours.
When the immense India plate slipped beneath the Burma plate, waves of energy traveled from Sumatra to Alaska mostly through the Earth’s crust. The surface waves traveled along the ground through China, Russia, and across the Bering Strait to Alaska, reaching Mount Wrangell about one hour after the earthquake struck off the coast of Sumatra. Though the Earth rang like a bell for days after the giant earthquake, only people closer to the epicenter felt the surface waves, Sanchez said.

So... is the Earth hollow too?
