Joe, A very interesting photo. I printed it and turned it upside down. When you do this and think of the illumination coming from the top, the straight lines appear to be on high surfaces rather than low surfaces. This makes it more probable that they are an artifact of the rover. It sure is easy to see the tail of a fish in the right side up photo, though. Brent --- Joe Bauman <bau@desnews.com> wrote:
Could somebody take a look at this microscopic imager view from Spirit, just posted, and tell me if you think it's just scrapes from the abrasion tool, or something more interesting -- like fossils. Thanks, Joe
