Linked rotation and orbit = different impact rates per hemisphere? - E.P. Grondine - 11/1/2004 12:08:10 AM
- relative velocity linked to crater size - E.P. Grondine - 11/1/2004 1:01:53 AM
  - like this - E.P. Grondine - 11/1/2004 1:10:42 AM
    - but much, much rougher as well (n/t) - E.P. Grondine - 11/1/2004 1:18:59 AM
      - low speed asteroidal impact? - E.P. Grondine - 11/1/2004 1:22:38 AM
        
        and here the white rays are shown linked to comet fragments - E.P. Grondine - 11/1/2004 1:25:42 AM
