"More recent images show that some of the smooth texture of Snow Queen has slightly roughened since then. Cracks as long as 4 inches (10 centimeters) have appeared in the hard layer. A pebble or clod about one-third of an inch long (seven millimeters) not seen before also popped up to the surface."

- Maybe they'll talk about that as well in the news conference...
