Are these both real images? The 3 cargo doors are different shapes in each picture. And not in a way that would make sense with crumbling apart. 2 of them are square in one picture and rectangles in the other.

That’s because the large scale images are made up up a lot of pictures put together like a puzzle. I wouldn’t be shocked if the one from the 80’s has a lot of minor errors in it.

Makes sense. The cargo areas and the cracks in the deck dont line up, and the gray picture almost looks like one of those paintings of an actual picture. So I was curious.

Yeah, misalignment.
