Hi all,
Here is the latest result from my barrel scraping...
First of all, apologies for the horribly blown highlights!
Once your retinas adjust there are some interesting things to see here
that intrigue me. Like the strangely elongated dome(?) at bottom left
with a similarly elongated pit. (the GLR Dome map shows a dome
identified on the side of this feature but to me it looks like its the
whole thing, or maybe I am misreading the indication on the dome map).
The lower two of the Aristarchus Rilles seemed to look a bit ragged in
the west compared to other images and at first I thought the
processing had messed up, but checking with the LOIV image

I could see they meander and broaden out quite a bit here. Another
oddity is the distictive wide valley to the east of Montes Agricolla.
It looks completely out of place somehow, I wonder how it got there?
