Product Description
It's difficult to identify the true "top" of a spherical object viewed from any angle. In any photograph of a sphere there will appear to be a top to it, which is simply the point on the sphere at which the line of sight is tangent to it. This will be true for any line of sight and any unobstructed sphere. To claim the spot at Note L is necessarily the top of the helmet would require some other reference, such as a feature on the helmet known to be at its apex.
The conspiracists again rely on a rigidly naive expectation of perfect objects casting perfect shadows on a perfectly smooth, flat surface. The photographer (Pete Conrad) is shooting roughly up-sun, so whatever's casting those shadows should be in the picture. Closely examining the shadows behind Conrad, we see that they also converge because they are the shadows of Conrad's legs. The shadows converge because Conrad's legs converge -- at his hips. Similarly the shadows in question at Note M are being cast by Bean's legs, which also converge at his hips.
Two light sources do not cast such converging shadows. They cast overlapping shadows with two levels of brightness.
With the supposed multiple light sources, we wonder why there's only one highlight on Bean's visor.
