Hi Telfrow... Good find. However, if it's accuracy we're after, we still need much larger scale <i>prints</i>.<br /><br />RCH used prints that were big.... I'm guessing at least as big as a drafting table. He even says "much larger scale reproductions" to verify measurements. What you've posted is the same siimplified graphic representation that he uses in the "Cydonia Geometry Relationship Model" picture. (sorry, don't have the pic handy...)<br /><br />How are you making out, Yevaud?

Well, two items:<br /><br />GIS software is terribly expensive, so unless you want to spring for many thousands of dollars...<br /><br />I don't know about recent images. However, if the 1975 image has been processed, then there's little point in trying to repeat it on our own. NASA likely did everything we would do anyways. Hence my post (above) about the images on that site, and the comment made by the site's owner.<br /><br /><br />On the flip side: I can obtain a freeware version of ARC, but in the grand scheme of things, Paintshop is probably just as adequate.<br /><br />Still trying to figure a way around the cost issue and locate recent images though. Maybe I can talk an old prof. into allowing me access to the GIS lab... <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><em>Differential Diagnosis:  </em>"<strong><em>I am both amused and annoyed that you think I should be less stubborn than you are</em></strong>."<br /> </p> </div>

Telf: <font color="yellow">As for the point that's being made, I know what it is...I understand what it is...(I think)...that the only rectified images have been produced by Carlotto, Torun, TVF, et. al., and not by NASA. If I'm right, could we please move on? </font><br /><br />No, that's not the point being made. I don't think that's true.... <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" /><br />I'm surprised you haven't figured it out yet.<br />How you making out Yevaud?<br />

Lol,,,, Forget the cost.... Can you <i>get</i> the necessary data from NASA?

That is the issue. To find that out, I've been trying to get a professor of mine on the phone to ask him. He'd have the contacts better than I would.<br /><br />So far, nothing yet.

Even if we find them...we're all supposed to order them and work on them independently? How do we share information? How do we compare work?<br /><br />So what you're saying is, the discussion that has taken place here has reached an end...we can't do any other work, or discuss our positions, unless we're working off those prints. Just a quick question...why wasn't this issue and your position concerning the orthorectified images brought up in - say - Part One? And why did you let us (me) waste the time we (I) did producing my side of the arguement when you knew (apparently) you were going to dismiss everything we (I) did on that basis? (If I sound a little miffed, I am....sorry. You would be too, my friend.) <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <strong><font color="#3366ff">Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find and not to yeild.</font> - <font color="#3366ff"><em>Tennyson</em></font></strong> </div>

And, one last time before my training day begins:<br /><br />If what you're saying is correct, why don't any of the images used on TEM to advance the RCH arguement carry the notation: "Calibrated to orthorectified image XXXXX."? They're presented without any such notations, which leads to the conclusion he is working off the readily available images we've been using.<br /><br />Also, I've heard and seen in print RCH contend all the evidence is on the site, and offer an open invitation to believers and skeptics to examine the evidence and reach their own conclusions....he's even gone as far as telling skeptics to use what's on the site to try and disprove his theory. <br /><br />Again, if what you're saying is true, it's a pretty neat little trick...IMO, it makes his statement disingenuous - at best. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <strong><font color="#3366ff">Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find and not to yeild.</font> - <font color="#3366ff"><em>Tennyson</em></font></strong> </div>

Good morning tel...<br /><br />Interesting webpage, to say the least!<br /><br />In your post: <font color="yellow">"According to this site <br />http://www.marsearthconnection.com/proof5.html <br />the following photo is the "original NASA 35A72 Mosaic-Orthographically corrected print..."</font><br /><br />What is <i>very</i> cool is the quote just under that photo's pop-up box;<br /><br />"This is the original NASA 35A72 Mosaic-Orthographically corrected print. It has within it all the keys to Bart Jordan's thesis. Unless one has physically contructed a model directly over a NASA enlarged photo 35A72, there's no way one could come up with the proof of the numbers and forms."<br /><br />Man, I don't know how many times over the years I wanted to make this sort of sculpture, <i>JUST FOR FUN!!</i>: <br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>

Otherwise, according to this, photos (orthrectified or not) won't prove the "proof of the numbers and forms."<br /><br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <strong><font color="#3366ff">Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find and not to yeild.</font> - <font color="#3366ff"><em>Tennyson</em></font></strong> </div>

Yes, tel <i>"according to this"</i>. I don't particularly agree with that statement, but I <i>sure</i> would like that model in my office! <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>

We've already done the overlay on the orthorectified map, Max. <br /><br />Unless now you're saying this isn't it.

So, since the image that appears on NASA's site is not the original image that first appeared there, which is the image that RCH et al use to prove their numbers, then where is the first, original image?<br /><br />I assume, this is related to BAMF?<br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <font size="1">I put on my robe and wizard hat...</font> </div>

Read the bottom caption, Telfrow.....<br /><br />It says: <font color="yellow"> diagram of relationships observed in Cydonia by Hoagland, Torun and others. This <i>simplified graphic representation</i> is intended for illustrative purposes only. Any attempt to verify the claimed values should be based upon <i>larger scale, orthographically-rectified reproductions</i> </font><br /><br />The gentleman in your previous link said the same thing.<br /><br />Bigger is better and more accurate.... Can we get the necessary data to confirm RCH's, et al,,,, geometric model from NASA?<br /><br />That is the question on the table..... <br /><br />According to Yevaud, it should be readily available. <br /><br />Sorry, I've been busy today..... <img src="/images/icons/frown.gif" />

Eh. That's like 2 "F's" there, buddy. Hoser. <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" /><br /><br />You know, I have a question for everyone: I see these supposed relationships between various objects. Now the way I was taught, simplicity is always key. So I look at these dozens of lines linking things to each other, and I ask myself, why?<br /><br />Why?<br /><br />The single thing no one's mentioned or really discussed is, why should these relationships be important. Are we all wasting our time scrutinizing chance alignments, thinking they have significance?<br /><br />I am beginning to think that these are way too complex and "busy" to be artificial. Can anyone answer me why an ancient Martian civilization would consider some pile of rocks to be so important that they'd align things so precisely with respect to them? And why so many? Where is that elegant simplicity one would expect?<br /><br />Why? <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><em>Differential Diagnosis:  </em>"<strong><em>I am both amused and annoyed that you think I should be less stubborn than you are</em></strong>."<br /> </p> </div>
