I guess they're not shadows. They're the tips of the helicopter's legs

Edit: in case it isn't clear, this a photo of the helicopter's shadow on the surface, taken by a down-facing camera in the underside of the helicopter. It has a sort of fisheye lens, so there's some distortion at edges

Looks like the landing legs of the helicopter? Difficult to say from just this image though.

These aren’t shadows but the helicopter’s legs.

Obviously, these are from the trusses in the studio. Must be.

Yeah, they had to choose the correct lens though. If too wide of a lens is used, you can still see the set with the moon lander from the 60s.

Your response gave me a chuckle.
