Odd Routes
It's absurd to believe that the rover would make this particular route.
Missing Tracks in the Lunar Dust
Additionally, it should also be notice that in some of the Apollo images the rover left no tire tracks in the moon dust. Zoom into these photos and notice that there are no tracks to either side of the wheels. This might be because in some scenes the rover was lowered down by a crane.
Note: Click on a thumbnail above for a medium sized image, and then click on it several times for a high resolution image.
Q: But couldn't the tracks have been covered up by astronauts kicking dust around?
A: No. This explanation is absurd and has been thoroughly refuted Additionally, in the case of some scenes such as AS15-86-11603HR.jpg the amount of track missing is excessive.
Floating Moonbuggies
Zoom in close and decide for yourself whether the rear wheel is even touching the ground. The rear of the rover appears to be suspended in mid air, despite the vehicle not being in motion or occupied by a driver.
This may support the idea some scenes were created by lowering the rover down with a crane.
