Okay, I'm a bit confused here and hoping someone can help me out. On Phil Plait's BAD ASTRONOMY blog he is running down his list of "Top Ten Images" of 2007... some gorgeous pictures, one of them being an MRO image of one of the "pits" On Mars. The thing is, I can't recall ever seeing this particular image, nothing like anything this detailed, so I'm wondering did I miss something?
Left: best HiRISE "pit" image I can find. Right: the image on Phil Plait's site.
