#25 Whats the line...

Using scientific image extrapolation techniques, I've manage to fill in some more of the photo. Don't try this on photoshop kids, only CIA software will do the trick...



I really must find something useful to do with my time. :?  

Anyway, I reckon the clue is in the jet - surely Moon day must bring back memories?

Failing that, someone must have seen a boulder with the words BEN MOON engraved into the top. Would have thought it would be quite obvious...

Could it be that tricky slab problem on the pock block? It seems to have the look of a vague scoop in it to me.

OMG r-man actually did something funny!

Isn't that Raven Scar in the background though?

P.S. I will bet my ballsac it's Mother's Pet Rock to be honest.


Edit: Graham, no, landing is totally different.

I asked Adrian at PF and he said he didn't have a clue and I'd have to ask Rich. I'm sure he's registered on here, could someone PM him?

heres a wildcard idea> its not one of the direct problems up through Not A Jerry Traverse is it? If this is right then everyone owes me a beer.

the shape holds he's on etc looks a bit like the problem from the rail on the eaglestone, but the general shape of the rock is wrong (the eagle thing is a rounded nose, not a long barrel).

After three years deliberation I've decided it's the slabby boulder with three probs on in the gully behind Moon Buttress

Looks like problem 3 due to that brown patch by his right hand...
