Simply fantastic and breathtaking image!
Whoa! mother nature is surprising, even on a "rubble pile of stones" like this one!
I never seen a surface like that one, even if I already seen surfaces of other asteroids.
What is astonishing, is the appearance, the so many steeples, and the
Incredibly smooth surfaces, between boulders and craters and impossible steep slopes here and there...
in the right lobe, right on the top, there is a wide depression where I can imagine the outgassing came out once.
Even thou, in the so-white rosetta image of August, 2 it appears that the main jet comes out from the "neck" of the comet...
At first impression I get, is the DOUGH you get when you knead the flour and it is still wet and not well worked...
It's incredible that only 4 days ago some jets where coming out violently from this thing, I really hope ESA could be smart enough together with some luck, not to be "aimed" by these jets, in a way that could damage the spacecraft....
Go on, ROSETTA ! ! !
