The skeptics are going to be hard pressed to call this one a "trick of light and shadow"
The hoaxers are getting more desparate or stupid ::)

No but we can easily call it pareidolia.
-
.....pareidolia.
Had to Google that to find the definition - I have come across the phenomenon before, just not what it was called! Amazing the games the human mind can play.
-
Our visual system is designed to recognize patterns. Some of us apply a bit of rationality to mediate our perceptions while others will leap at seeing exactly what their brain is expecting.

This methinks. If I look back through my digital and film pictures I bet I can find many examples. Then zap them through jpeg and this will make it worse (better??), if that makes sense.
Looking at that link at the top, you have got to accept a lot for that to fit.

The last one on that page displays the author's clear lack of spacial reasoning skills. He labels the shadow of the subject in the visor reflection as the shadow of the photographer.

Don't forget the other label on that crop, "What is This?". Maybe, just maybe it's the photographer's (Charlie Duke) reflection? ::)

there could be debrie from the luna program the russians had, they had so many failures , they probably crashed a few on the moon. every where humans go they leave litter, such as all the landing sites have a lot of human stuff left behind.
-
Litter? Did you expect the astronauts to pack up their trash and take it back to earth with them?
-
Charlie Duke left a photograph of his family on the Moon and Alan Bean left his silver astronaut pin and Dave Scott left a Bible. I don't think it was so bad to leave "human stuff" at the landing sites.
-
Just think of the dissertations to be written. We wouldn't want to deprive the first generation lunar archaeologist something to study, would we?
-
One of the reasons for NASA's request that the Apollo 17 site remain undisturbed is that it contains many documented experiments on the effects of long exposures to the lunar environment on various materials. It was thought that "long" might be measured in a few decades...

The last one was funny. "There's this thingy reflected in the astronaut's helmet that looks like another astronaut! OMG!"

And since the whole thing was all filmed in a studio, I'll bet that image even looks like it is holding a camera ...

most probably they are parts for the cooker who of course is the moons only inhabitant! ;D

Another mystery solved.
Welcome to the forum.

The greatest irony of this silly claim is that there are indeed machine parts at about 80 sites on the Moon - but they are all ours.
-
By "ours" I assume you mean human, not necessarily American...
I do wonder whether any of the parts at most of those ~80 sites are even recognizable. An impact of several km/s is pretty violent...

I see all space achievements as primarily the achievements of humanity rather than any one nation.

They are still machine parts even if not visually recognisable. Their chemistry and context will also say they are artificial.
About 30 sites would be either soft landings, low velocity impacts, or dispersed artefacts from soft landings.
