Ah, yes! A single motorcycle track! That would explain it. However, we'll have to "realize" together that it could only "almost explain it," as, contrary to your representation, the elusive motorcycle only "
almost made it to the moon," but never quite did. It was never even close enough to going along to see a design for it be anything
close to being finalized. I'm glad you can admit you were wrong.
And yes, as the photos above attest, there were mock-up photographs taken, but all of the official lunar gallery Hasselblad pictures (with reticules) are clearly marked to have been exposed during each of the lunar missions. All the photo magazines in the official Apollo gallery conform to the standard nomenclature, ASxx-yyy-zzzz' where xx is the actual mission. The specific picture you questioned is shown in this official Apollo Missions archive webpage. You'll note 'AS-40-5922' is contained within Apollo 11's S Magazine, whose legend states: '[129 color images (125 surface; 3 orbital; 0 other)]'. Thus, the only interpretation is that this claimed to be an official-in-every-way picture from the surface of the moon during the Apollo 11 mission.
Your claimed ease at "explain[ing] away" these important facts and turning truth seekers into 'ho-hum' non-believers is troublesome, OftheOhio, though I welcome you to keep trying, as again and again you've shown that those stubborn facts are just not on your side.
I noticed you didn't have anything to say about the two stacked video frames at right in my first post here. They, too, are authentic and more than troublesome for people that say they can easily "explain things away.".
If you choose to continue to say things like, "The track you do see is likely from the equipment rack", I trust you'll be able to point out to what you're referring using an official picture thereof from the galleries as I've appropriately taken the trouble to do to answer your skeptical critique.
I could care less about your conspiracy therories, according to a 2018 report from the Pentagon, the entire Department of Defense lost over 20,000 U.S.-based industrial suppliers from 2000 to 2018. Let that reality sink in. As an engineering designer for the military I saw the destruction myself.
I thought I distinctly remembered seeing someone riding a motorcycle on the moon on television, but that was 50 years ago. You’re the one trying to explain the photo as fake and suggesting the single track being from the not yet unpacked rover. It could have been any number of devices like a camera equipent rickshaw or simple versions of the Modular Equipment Transporter with changed out chevron pattern wheels. Even though they had a rover, you think they just manhandled large pieces of equipment? The first mission to the moon used the MET and there were lessons learned. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_Equipment_Transporter Wheel development. https://ntrs.nasa.gov/archive/nasa/casi.ntrs.nasa.gov/20100000019.pdf
As far as the last two stacked pictures, I don’t see any rover in either of those pictures. Clearly it is the same camera location. What I do see looks very much like a piece of equipment. The left astronaut is obscuring whatever piece of equipment is behind him. Some of it’s parts are clearly visible though. The right astronaut looks as if he is dragging something. So what.
Leaat of all, I didn’t forget the story of Apollo 13 and how the mock up was instrumental in saving their lives after the oxygen tank explosion.
