Horton>>>

Quote, "yes, dx, it looks like the round rock might have "popped out" of the hole in the rock and "bounced" twice! Very strange.

I wonder if the exhaust from the rockets was hot enough to boil ice trapped beneath the rock and then the trapped hot water vapor popped the rock out like a cannon?," unquote.

Just look at that burn mark to the right of the hole on that rock...! It had to burn there because its a depression in the rock and therefore it excited the burn flame more intensely to, as Horton says.."popped the rock'. Makes perfect sense to me.

I think this is very likely what happened.
Wonderful observation indeed.

WHERE IS HENRY? WE NEED HIM IN HERE.
