In case anyone is still out there, the first thumbnail image from the lander was displayed at 1:12 am, with that single shot being followed by a veritable torrent of imagery. These early pictures show a landscape very different from what the other lander has been showing us. Few rocks close in and one group of rocks in the near distance that looks to all the world like a broken up tiled patio (I hope we didn't do that on the way in... <grin>). The lander righted itself with the nose about 5 degrees high and about 1 degree tilt to the side. Patrick
