I know, I usually wax lyrical and scientific over this picture or that returned from various astronomical and space observatories. But honestly, I don't have a whole lot to say about this particular image, from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, showing boulders that have rolled downhill to the bottom of the 45 kilometer-wide Rutherford crater:
Except: a) Click to embiggen. 2) I still have not gotten used to these super hi-res pictures. This one is 510 meters across. See the big rock at the top, left of center? The one casting a long shadow? That's about the size of my yard, and I don't have a particularly large piece of property. Some of the rocks in this image are smaller than a car. c) Wow. The good news is, these images still do amaze me. I'm pretty happy I haven't been spoiled yet. But as more pictures come back from LRO, that might happen. I'm only human -- but I do have a large capacity for amazement. Keep 'em coming! Image credit: NASA/GSFC/Arizona State University
