Re 2) Do you see the fuzzy shadow of almost 500m diameter 1km to the left from the slabs? I'd interprete this as an old impact crater. Over time, the craters erode due to subsequent impacts.

Re 2) Do you see the fuzzy shadow of almost 500m diameter 1km to the left from the slabs? I'd interprete this as an old impact crater. Over time, the craters erode due to subsequent impacts. I used Quickmap to measure the distance from the slabs to the leftwise crater and it is only 500 m to the center of it. It is about 500 m diameter. Being a neophyte I would have thought that the erosion of that crater would be matched by the erosion of the presumed slabs ejected from it. That looks like a lot of crater erosion to me! But the slabs appear sharply defined. |
