I was also wondering what are the two yellowish areas on both sides of the gold-wrapped tank just to the left of the first tracks of Yutu. reflections from the thermal protection? the tank itself appears to be cut toward the top... I guess these are reflections off the 2 tanks, one yellow patch off each tank, but displaced to the left (westwards) on account of the sun angle. There were other bright reflections on the ground underneath Yutu's panels in several of the detailed rover pics. Yes, I agree the top of the left tank is cut off and the tubing crudely pasted on. To the left of that tank, part of one rock appears twice, so the pan in that area is a bit rough. But a lovely scene overall, and a nice view of the pyramid rock on the edge of the big crater, which Yutu is now approaching. |
