Editor's Comment: There is far more to this image than meets the eye. Regarding the black paper-like material that was added – it is obviously not a part of the LM, therefore it must have been an addition made during the photo shoot – no doubt by a whistle-blower. Was the purpose to draw attention to the LM itself, or perhaps to a situation the photographic team were unhappy about?
This 'black paper' anomaly does not appear in other photographs, and must have been added ON THE SET.The astronauts certainly had no reason whatsoever to add it, nor had they the material to add it while ON THE MOON. This photograph alone proves fakery, since it was added over the US decal. And hopefully the NASA Press Office has the answer as to what the object may be that is reflected in the helmet.
