Yes, I must admit that the more I look at this the more I find the basins (or basin rims) case to be compelling.
Something else I'm noticing today is that the area to the west of the Voyager mountains looks interesting, with the western extension of the peaks having a more continuous and wavy look. http://laps.noaa.gov/albers/sos/saturn/iap...cyl_070717b.jpg -------------------- Steve [ my home page and planetary maps page ]

Hmm, looks quite curious... Maybe a kind of artifical effect in the way you are puzzling your maps ? The eastern rim of the large basin also appears a bit wavy... Bye. |
