Regarding the raised rim on the left that some of us thought was "something" sitting on the plain/apron. On stretched pictures, it looks now like a vertical wall on the exterior of the crater. I understand the definition is still poor because of the distance + been taken by the navcams, anyway could this be in the order of one meter range (3-4 feet)? Is this that Tesheiner and others (?) said it could be beacon ?

No, I think this high section is blocking our view of the gap just beyond it, through which we viewed the array of beacons along the far... Oh, I give up. It must be the cursed beacon. Brian |
