Default two astronauts in reflection

Hi all,

Someone sent me the following image from the nasa website itself:
http://history.nasa.gov/alsj/alsj.trio.jpg

The picture implies that there are three men on the moon surface; of course there weren't.

How is this possible?

thanks
Patrick

That photograph has been altered and is not meant to be taken seriously. It is from the Apollo Lunar Surface Journal page called More Creativity: Fun and Inspiration. The page's introduction says, "The following creations show the fun side of being an Apollo enthusiast. Many of the offerings use Apollo images and scenes as a basis, but with unexpected additions. Some show members of the ALSJ/AFJ team having Apollo-like adventures here on Planet Earth. And still other offerings make use of Apollo material for various artistic purposes."

To find the picture you posted here, scroll down to where it says "The Real Secret of Apollo 12." This picture is credited to "David Harland (tongue firmly in cheek)."

This is my favourite depiction of three astronauts on the Moon.
