Fascinating. Thank you.

Randy

 

P.S. But surely this can be explained by a common digitizer as well as a common astronaut shoe, so we cannot confidently conclude that it is an astronaut footprint. Besides, science cannot address the past with confidence and since this has not been experimentally repeated in the past few decades....

Speaking of Moonwalks, here are some fresh images from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO).  Look closely at the Apollo 14 image and you will see the actual tracks made by those Moon walkers (Shepard & Mitchell, with Roosa orbiting).

Images with better resolution are expected in the near future.
