These two images represents Copernicus in different light. They have been taken about 26 hours from each other (see the previous entry). The upper one on 12.01.2003 17:15 UT and lower on 13.01.2003 19:50 UT. Note how the appearance of the surface features changes. Must have been a beautiful sunrise at the walls of Copernicus!
