QUOTE (serpens @ Sep 20 2012, 07:58 PM)  ...Some of the discussions within the team must be fascinating. Ah, to be a fly on the wall.Interesting post-brush Pancams of Whitewater down that afternoon. That "mudstone" appears to be remarkably soft, or at least the weathering rind is. And although the outcrpo looks light- and "reddish-" toned, knock the crust off and it's... bluish. Imagine that, and that will need considerable thought... Meanwhile, off to figure out where we are on the outcrop and in the section...  --Bill -------------------- |

This particular spot on the Whitewater Lake outcrop has been labeled Azilda. A quick search gave me the relationship between both:
Whitewater Lake is located in Rayside, Snider and Creighton townships, near the town of Azilda. |

Oppy and her big sis are obviously locked into a sibling rivalry game of "Anything you can do..."
Phobos transit seen by Oppy. The Sun was overexposed but you can see the transit on a reflection just above the glaring Sun... -------------------- |

Thanks for that!
The images are in exploratorium (see Stu's post above), but they are stretched differently so the sun is very hard to make out. |

At the right of that panorama there is a feature that seems to cut right through the strata. It has reddish-(covered) clay-like stuff at its centre and darker rocks either side. Any ideas? A crack filled from above?? or below??

How odd. Watching that flicker gif, I feel this compulsion to do the time warp. Again.
