Hi Mann/Marsman/Hort et al

This is one of the clearest images I've seen of the Phoenix SODs. Its an SSI image composite from sol 84. The sods on the landing pad are clearly seen to have taken up very consistent repeating shapes. They are mainly filaments but there are many curved filaments capped by smooth globular things at either ends. There are also circles, spheres, etc. Also of note is the discolouration of soil near to the lander. It shows up green in my composite but who knows what colour it really is. There are many things in that soil, if they were on Earth, that would be classified as probably organic after a cursory look.
