QUOTE (elakdawalla @ Oct 16 2009, 08:59 PM)  Stu, that's not resolving; can you check your source? I think there should be six digits in the first cluster of numbers. Emily try ESP_014394_2045 . -------------------- If Occam had heard my theory, things would be very different now.

Aah, you still deserve the props, big guy. It's an important image for understanding the behavior of these things; thanks for bringing it to life!

How could a dust avalanche flow around the boulder so neatly?

thx for those crops Stu. Looks like some dried up terraced hillsides. Those Martians must have really been into gardening!

Stu,
Your work rocks! (next time I am in England, I need to stop by for a tutorial from the color master! What is your hourly rate?) Cheers -------------------- CLA CLL
