Ok... I was taking a look at some sites this morning as I usually do when I came across a link to some youtube vid. This vid shows some sort of ancient craft on the moon, landed or crashed there. It states that several Apollo missions filmed it.
Anybody heard about this before? Is this another hoax or the images are real?
Find below the youtube link and some pics.

He provides a link to the NASA strip it supposedly came from (bottom picture).
If this is actually from a NASA strip and this is what shows up when it's blown up.....Well that would be strange

EDIT :
The image in the strip photo is real i traced it through the Apollo Images album on NASA.But gets blurred when you enlarge it ,so hard to make out any detail.
The next thing would be to see if the craters in the video match the craters in the strip photo image ?.
I havent got youtube in work so i'll have to leave it someone to figure this out.

I know that this object is purported to be on the far side of the moon, and out of reach of earth based telescopes etc, but is it possible to see human artifacts on the nearside surface using telescopes? LEM platforms, probes, buggies etc? Even a modest pair of binocs can distinguish crater detail on the surface with ease, just wondering about the capacity of more powerful telescopes etc.
The video looks fake to me, the whiteout/over-exposure just before the "craft" becomes visable it a tell-tale giveaway imo. interesting vid though

HUH? An Saturn V rocket launch "Hidden"....

I think not - that would be too big a rocket to 'hide' let alone the launch.... unless well if maybe, sorta kinda launched at the North or South Pole... a BIG MAYBE..... This would just be a "tad" stretch for a conspiracy - I think even most conspiracy theorist would shy away from this 'one'....

Anyway, I think its another hoax, and that thing in the pic from NASA, it looks different to me from the one on the vid. Though NASA probably would do some "brush work" on the image before releasing it if there’s something there!

The problems that occure with this would, I think, be the high speed of the moon's movement relative to the Earth. At the zoom you would need to show such detail, the movement will most likely blurr the image.

Unfortunately, bowlgun, no, it cannot be done. There is no land, or space based telescope with the resolving capability to image artifacts on the moon which are no larger than a few meters across from a distance of a couple hundred thousand miles.

Just wondering...
That blue screen was taken from Goldstone transmissions of video from Apollo 11 on July 17, 1969....it's just one of those official looking things that the creators of this fabricated video took...undoubtedly from a youtube clip, to make it look somewhat authentic...they also took a snippet of DAC test film from Apollo 11 and stuck it in there as well...
Just junk to try and make it look authentic while providing evidence of its obvious fabrication.

Ooohh, you're a tough one, Jj.
Actually, it appears to be orbital footage, taken from a LM (The LPD grid on the left LM window is a giveaway), which appears to be facing down and at about 90 left roll at the moment these pictures are taken (all of the landing footage was 16 MM film taken through the right window, which had no LPD on it. This appear to be video.).
I don't know which mission it's from, but I'd guess it's from a J-Mission (Apollo 15 through 17), since they're obviously passing over highland areas...

No there was no Apollo 18 - 20. It stopped at 17. The funding got cut and they had to cancel all other programs to the moon. Congress was getting 'tight'... sigh.....
This video is a paste together job to promote a HOAX and they didn't even do a good job of it. Notice that they edited out pretty much ALL actual voice communications between the astronauts and ground control. They had to "paste" in voice TEXT, for a very obvious reason...

Pretty much what Jj said. There were no Apollo 18 through 20 missions, unfortunately.They were indeed planned, but the Nixon budget cuts scrapped 20 in 1970, and by 1971, 19 and 18 were relegated to the "could've been" category--in favor of a highly reduced Apollo Applications program, which involved the three manned Skylab missions in 1973-1974, and ASTP, which flew in 1975, and of course, the Shuttle Program.
You might take note of that fancy APOLLO 20 patch.
There have never been astronauts named Snyder or Rutledge. Leonov of course there was only one of, Alexei, and he made his last flight on Soyuz 19, the ASTP mission in July of 1975.
There were also no manned spaceflights by any nation taking place in August of 1976.
This entire thing is a fake.

there was an Apollo 20 mission planned. There was no launch.
It is interesting to note that lights in the sky are deemed proof and any more detailed film is generally deemed too unbelievably revelant to be believed.
Some say it is a transformer
In any case folks, the notion that NASA has reported every space program/excursion is simply ridiculous
The Military does not. We know of the F-22, B2 And F-117 because the Air Force wants the world to know what toys it has, to counter any 'bright' ideas by some ruthless regime(Russia)
However, there are without a doubt things being worked on that we have no idea about. Not UFO's lol, but vehicles more capable than the above mentioned. The point is, it is highly likely that NASA has done its own 'secret' missions, and for what reason?
