Hi!
QUOTE Yeah, that area was imaged in August 2004, but from so far away (10 million kilometres) that the only details visible were the basic outline of the Roncevaux Terra basin, and its central peak. So, although we *have* seen it, it's effectively unexplored. I've looked through the images of this period and probably found some of those you meant. Here a takeout: Date: 2004-07-22 Distance: 3.489.136 km Filters: CL1 and CL2 Difficult to say wether it's the western rim of the large southern bassin in Roncevaux Terra at the terminator. This chart could be helpful: The eastern rim of the bassin is nice in this pics from October 2004: Bye. |
