Evidencesensor data
Tall objects with very long shadows that Max shows in a far-side polar crater. Source image found: LROC low-sun PSR mosaic NAC_ROI_PSRPLASULOA (sun ~7° up), public since about 2017. Max estimates 95 ft; at that sun angle a 29 m object casts a ~236 m shadow, consistent with what he shows.

How plausible · Low
Long shadows in a public low-sun LROC mosaic are consistent with tall objects, but nobody has measured them yet.
- ●○Access The image is public mission data.
- ●○No gain sought Nothing sold.
- ●○Checkable details check out Anyone can examine the frame.
- ●○Restraint The shadow arithmetic is checked and a measurement proposed.
- ●○Physical traces or official reaction The shadows are in the data.
Against
- −Lone source, no corroboration Max's reading is the only one that calls it anomalous.
Plausibility weighs how well an account fits where secrecy hides the documents by design, so missing records never count against it. Strength measures what is documented. Assessed 2026-10-23.

The Moon is not emptyEdgar Mitchell is said to have described blue lights escorting Apollo 14. Ingo Swann wrote that a man he called Axelrod took him blindfolded to an underground site and had him view the Moon: towers over a hundred feet tall, domes, mining and humanlike beings, which the group already knew about.
