goggog, hello, having worked alone for decades and deciding to join a group of fellow adventurers it has been a challenge to follow the protocols. Nevertheless, they are quite sensible and am trying to get the swing of the modern procedurals. Please be a bit patient! Usually I just find some interesting picture, download and work on it, however, have spent a few hours and give the following for the Itokawa picture. Go to JAXA: Digital Archives<Photo Archives<Observational Images<Press 3< P-043-12079 ( this is ISAS/JAXA Release 051101-3 and 0398a2dbf1f970e67e58394c5dc93654 JPG ( whatever that is ). For a better picture ( with JAXA notations on it ) is found at the above site; press 2< P-043-15246< (< high res ). I was impressed with the profusion of material and have downloaded a few pics which I intuitively know contain a wealth of anomalies to explore, I recommend this site to the group . Once again, sorry, but hope this makes some sense to you.
1. The Itokawa is a strange relic of long ago. As the attached do indicate the derelict hulls of ancient ships, these being located in the top left corner of the picture. This supposed asteroid may very well been a docking or way station to a space-faring race at one time. The hulls and decks seem dismantled, as if in a salvage operation rather than by bombardment. This is reinforced by the fact there being not a single crater on the entire mass of the object.
2. There is such a profusion of subjects and subheadings it is quite bewildering as to what is where and especially can anyone answer me as to just where do I find 'replies' as i do not wish to feel i am snubbing anyone at the site who has a question or comment on the pictures or otherwise in this matter.
