When you've spent as many years as I have in image analysis and synthesis, then
you can have an opinion.  Or when you've spent *ANY* time on it.  Get the
animated GIF, break it into individual frames, and display several of them at
the same time.  Zoom in to the same area in each of them and look at what
happens to features on the moon that aren't your smokestack.

What's you will see it the moon's surface continually crawling with activity -
all created by pixel noise from poor digital and analog resolution, along with
aliasing.

When you can tell me what aliasing is, and what effects it can create, I'll
listen to you again.  Until then, you're just showing off your ignorance.
