Congratulations, Nick: Undercutting of the rim

E.P. — 10/4/2006 12:26:58 AM (archived)

Yep, the rim has been "undercut" - the clathrate layers collapsed after out venting, and then the rim went down -

At least that's what it looks like to me, but a closer examination will have to wait until next week
