I've been struggling all evening, to manipulate the full size version on my poor old computer.
Now it's getting late, so it'll have to wait. In the meantime here is a lower resolution (about 1/4) first draft. I believe that with this done that is full mission success for SSI. Congrats Mark! James -------------------- |

We now have an unobstructed view of the crater rim on the horizon to the west, which had been partly blocked by the arm:

Crop & 3 x enlargement of hills at Azm 278 deg Sol 44.
Is that a small impact crater at the bottom just right of centre at the bottom of this crop? Also, are they boulders on the hills, if so there are more larger pieces on the hills than on the tundra plains that Phoenix is situated on. Does anyone know what these hills are? I assume crater rims? Colour crop of same hills from Ant103 superb colour image. There is a huge amount of talent on UMSF.

Thank you very much Fred for your answer & to Phil Stooke for taking the time & trouble to pinning down what we are looking at. That crater appears to have an interesting polygonal floor. To me it looks more like a Pingo than an impact crater, though it's size appears too large for a pingo, unless they can grow much larger under the 37.8 % gravity? Please keep up the great & very important work everyone. Andrew Brown. -------------------- "I suddenly noticed an anomaly to the left of Io, just off the rim of that world.
