The story:
In 1971, Apollo 15 astronauts discovered the wreckage of a massive alien "space ship" on the moon. Photos of the object were taken on Apollo 17 and Apollo 20 (which was scrubbed and never flown),legend has it that it was actually launched in cooperation with the USSR from a secret facility and was sent to seek out the remains of this ship and it's technology. Allegedly the astronauts found the ship which was estimated to have been there for over a billion years and had already been plundered before humans arrived on the scene. They also took a walk through an ancient alien "city" on the far side of our moon. The Apollo 20 mission is widely regarded as nothing more than a hoax but the actual NASA film clips do seem to show a strange anomaly as described.

IMG FRAME
Enlarge and look to the right of the double crater at the top Left.
Crazy? maybe but maybe it has all happened before:
Seems we are looking for a place to house our own "ark" to preserve humanity in the event of a planetary disaster.
"Dooms Day Ark"
Odd indeed.
What a great way to start off the new year!
