    Ok, thanks, perfectly clear.

    I Understanding the Age of the Universe

    Hi Ibix, I'm a mechanical engineer and I'm trying to understand the currently accepted theories about the Universe.

    Ok, it's a rate. But is this reasoning correct?

    I Understanding the Age of the Universe

    I'm quoting from Wikipedia the article about GN-z11 (the oldest and most distant known galaxy): "At first glance, the distance of 32 billion light-years (9.8 billion parsecs) might seem impossibly far away in a Universe that is only 13.8 billion (short scale) years old, where a light-year is the...

    I Dawn dead in Ceres orbit, ran out of fuel Oct 2018

    So NASA is holding back information in order for scientists to publish their findings. Well, I'm tired of waiting for them to upload images of the spots. As I have already noticed, they have heavily photoshopped Occator imagery, and I think that in the process something went wrong and they...

    Still Occator is strangely neglected (although the bright spots are one of the strangest features encountered in the Solar System, so far).

    Still no news about Occator?

    The more I look at the images of the large spot, the more I have the impression of looking at some sort of lattice with nodes and webs and rays irradiating from a central point.

    I have another question for you. If the light we see were sunlight reflected by the surface of this "material", there should be some direction, where the surface should be visible without receiving the reflected light, according to the laws of optics. So, there should be the possibility for Dawn...

    I don't agree. The two big bright spots on the right have completely vanished in the surrounding terrain, whereas the other dimmer spots are still there in the new processed image. I think maybe NASA has (inadvertently?) erased the spots during post-processing.

    And here is a closeup of the largest spot. It seems organic to me. If you look carefully you can see cylindrical structures, blobs, corrugated tubes, tentacles and a central bulge.

    Here is a closeup with the profile of the missing spots.

    I have compared the previous image with the new and there is something odd. The two bright lights on the right side of the crater are missing. Here is the comparison.

    Here I tried to highlight a pattern and connect similar pixels.

    Ok maybe, I'm not an expert in the field of digital imaging. However the spots seem quite structured anyway. Or are they all processing artefacts?
