I spotted that too... very nice...!
Only problem with these images is that Moon-watchers like me are going to spend hours trying to identify craters on them... !!! I'm looking out for the crater "Eddington" so I can plug both the probe's mission and my astro society in the local press! Very useful for publicity and recruitment! -------------------- |
