There is no oxygen or even an atmosphere on the moon, it's a dead rock and the surface is exposed to space. Anything that could live on the moon would have to be a species that can live in the void of space. To be honest that'd be quite interesting. That said there's nothing on the moon to eat etc so it'd have to be something that was visiting the moon as you couldn't survive there without support.Samsont said:oxygen ( assuming is breathes )

Hey, don't lump the space penguins in with the rest of that tripe. They are a peaceful and benevolent society who has guided us for centu....I've said too much. My penguin overlords will not be pleased.GabeZhul said:Goddamit, I so called it! When the news broke that Google would put together Google Earth style maps for the Moon and Mars, my first reaction was "In a few days some idiots with too much time will come out of the woodworks to find some smudges and claim that they are aliens/pyramids/faces/space-penguins en masse", and lo and behold, it happened.
Someone get me James Randi and his one million dollars. I am apparently a psychic. -.-'

The Face on Mars definitely looks freaking cool.Johnny Novgorod said:Rocky formation is rocky. Face of Mars still takes the cake.
No, there would be sevens in the photo if that was true.ultratog1028 said:Clearly that is Tupac.
not sure if ironic, because the shadow direction matches.thaluikhain said:It must be an alien!
Look at the craters around it, in them, the shadows are going almost exactly the other way.
Only an alien would have a shadow that goes towards the light source.
no, not really. due to poor resolution all it looks is like a thing that has 4 limbs, two of which is used to stand on and a head. That does not even have to be a humanoid, let alone human. of course it could be a rock too since this is just a qpoor quality picture. but an alien with this shape is not unlikely because this shape is quite efficient in both moving around and interaction/usage of tools. there is a reason evolution picked this path rather than, say, intelligent koalas.Vigormortis said:Huh. It sure looks decidedly human for something that's supposed to be alien.
your underestimating the word alien. there is aboslutely no proof to claim that alien must have same food intake cycle or breathe or even be carbon based to live. for all we know there are intelligent rocks that are so slow it takes a whole human year for them to communicate a single "Word" between eachother. we would eaisly ignore such rocks too evne if we found them. for all we know there could be an alien that feeds of radiation floating in space. or of electormagnetic waves of which we shoot a lot towards the moon. we simply got aboslutely no idea how or what the alien would look like. it could also be humanoid too btw.RicoADF said:There is no oxygen or even an atmosphere on the moon, it's a dead rock and the surface is exposed to space.

Well the moon is a satellite of the planet Earth and has a profound impact on the tides, and from recent evidence the idea that the current moon has some of what used to be Earth in it due to an intense impact between the Earth and another celestial body. Google Earth is also a much catchier name than Google Moon. Maybe Lunar Google.Roofstone said:Well I'll go prepare for our alien overlords.
Wait.. Why does google EARTH have moon maps? That bothers me much more than it should to be honest.

No actually wait! If we can just get him back down to continue his inspirational work on children's television he can get back to promoting creativity and imagination in the otherwise slackjawed delinquent youth of today. Somebody find him his rocket ship...
"Hurry Up!"
You said it Blackboard.
They have Mars maps, too. It is a lot of fun with the flight simulator they have built into it.Roofstone said:Well I'll go prepare for our alien overlords.

Either that or its Carl Sagan come back to check on us.Dead Raen said:Don't worry guys, I've already figured it out.

Australia specific nostalgia as well.
Mr Squiggle (the man from the moon) was a puppet with his own TV show. He had a pencil for a nose and the entire premise of the show was that he was supplied with a bunch of random squiggles on a piece of paper, he'd then turn them into a picture by drawing with his nose... which looking back was some masterful puppeteering work.
Quite often as I recall, he'd seemingly finish a squiggle drawing, but it still didn't look like anything. That's when he'd chant, "upside down" until his human co star turned the page around to show what he was working on. Again it seems cool that he could draw upside down but I think as a puppeteer he was looking down on everything so it probably appeared right side up.
Oh and the blackboard that they placed the paper on was alive and would frequently tell them to "hurry uuuup"

Ouch, right in the childhood.

No. i was merely saying that humanoid aliens is a possibility because evolution. and with the resolution as poor as the image it could even be indistinguishable.Vigormortis said:Were you under the impression I actually thought it was a person in the photo?
