To me, this looks as if it is something not on the surface of the Moon. I have a idea this might be caused by a static discharge of electricity built up inside the camera. Of course, it is not as sexy as some alien megastructure but you have to admit, the things coming out do look rather like the discharges from those glass balls you place your hands on in the toy shop. I love those things and how the discharge follows your fingers. Ok, so there is a collar around the exit points of the 'electric bolts, but that does not mean it is not a discharge and possibly the tube-like object is smallish and got stuck inside the camera. If that was so, it may have provided an electrical pathway to the emulsion of the film. Rather like a Kirlian Photograph.
Are there any other images with this structure in them?
Because if so, then it is unlikely to be what I suggested and more likely to be an actual structure on the Moon.
Something I found which may explain it a little more.
When film is normally wound in a camera, static electricity is generated on the film surface. This electricity is dispersed by metal rims and rollers, which guide the film, and by humidity in the surrounding air. In the lunar surface camera, however, the film was guided by the Reseau plate's raised edges. As glass is a poor electrical conductor, and with the absence of surrounding air, the charge built up between the glass surface and the film could become so great that sparks could occur between the plate and the film. In order to conduct the static electricity away and prevent sparking, the side of the plate facing the film was coated with a thin transparent conductive layer and silver deposited on the edges of the conductive layer. The electrical charge was then led to the metallic parts of the camera body by contact springs.

Sorry Timewarp, somehow this one got by me. I was back on Skippers site the other day and was shocked to see he had done a report on this.
I wasn't sure anybody had seen it since it hadn't been mentioned. Such an amazing anomaly. How does this kind of thing not end up on international news?
It speaks volumes about the cover up. Any honest scientist would want to study and find out what this could be and probably have already.
Yes Levelwind, I read Joe Skipper's report a long time ago but things have developed and moved on since the anomaly was first noticed.
Today, we know much more about what's on the surface of the moon and there is the distinct possibility that someone is in residence on the moon. The consensus of opinion seems to be that the anomaly is a form of plasma discharge. That is one explanation but due to the object detail that can be seen in the image, there is another possibility.
Could it possibly be that the large pipe-looking object is a major duct carrying geo-thermally produced steam under very high pressure and what we are seeing is a leak at a collar where one of the small branch pipes joins the main pipe. As there is only a very thin atmosphere the steam escapes very rapidly under pressure and pushes up through what atmosphere there is until it reaches a much colder zone where it is blown by the lunar wind. At this point the plume of steam would start to cool very rapidly and eventually disperse. Just a thought.

G, I am grateful for your contribution and the work you have done.
I have had a look at the Quickmap view but there is not very much to see that is relevant to the Apollo view.
This is the reason why I prefer the older Apollo images as they display a degree of vertical and horizontal perspective; whereas the QM images are more top-down.
In the image shown below I have increased the gamma quite considerably to show what is in the very dark areas.
It can be seen that the large pipe or duct continues towards the lower right of the view and in my opinion this is evidence of a real fixture and not an image artefact.
More positive evidence to show that some very intelligent beings appear to be on the moon. Is it possible that these 'people' came from Mars in ancient times?
Hi Timewarp a fascinating anomaly. I hope you don't mind me having a crack at this to see what's on the other images at this location? Who knows what might turn up! Please find a slide attached showing the approximate location of the anomaly on the LROC Quick map. I think there are 4 additional images on the Arizona website. Lat 7.28 Long 178.50 are the approximate co-ordinates. Please feel free to correct me. I've used the NASA image map to work out roughly where the anomaly is comparing it to 4095.
