If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.

Lassev: I guess there was something captivating in savagery, because I liked it.

Exactly. And it's only a small portion of the planet anyway.

It would be more fascinating in true color.

Damn. It's totally missing my house. Must be based on old pictures. Even the neighbour's house isn't in, and it's an older one.

I think its quite interesting comparing the elevation (taken by radar probably) map to the visible, shame the visible is only in black and white, but that'll likely change with the new probes that have arrived.
People of our generation should not be subjected to mornings.

I like the elevation display the best, it lets you see those ancient riverbeds and stuff. :)

That was my first thought.

Does anyone know if it's in the picture?

What should it show if you zoomed in all the way (ala google.moon)? Little green men? Aquaducts? A cracked lens?

Hey, Blue? I'm loving the things you do. From the very first time, the fight you fight for will always be mine.

Look for plastic.

Anyway, I hope there will be a color scan soon.
