re: another dark spot

Thanks for the explanation, ER.

Near the middle of Kepler, there is a dark spot that doesn't move relative to the landscape. Must be a shadow. But what is strange is that it's the only shadow spot in the area while there are hills in other place there too.

    - It seems to make a turn in it's path. I am stumped. Must be aliens. (n/t) - alcaray - 6/30/2006 8:53:36 PM
      - Shadow... - R.L. - 7/1/2006 7:31:32 AM
      - Must be. Notice how quickly it is trying to get out of the picture. "Damn, they saw me!" - REB - 6/30/2006 9:01:32 PM

        You made the same mistake I did. This is not Mars, it's the moon. (n/t) - ER - 7/1/2006 8:36:13 PM
