[meteorite-list] Success! The Phoenix has landed safely.

[Rob McCafferty]

It's always great to get new images of a never seen before place.
I wonder how long before they try to get a decent view of the object near the horizon 2/3 of the way to the right.

Even looks like its illuminated from the left like the nearby rocks. Other images make it look like it may partly be an imaging/focusing artifact. Possibly a large boulder. Almost like an erratic.
