Good god! All that going on in just a quarter of an inch?!!? Great close up Bob, with nice detail. Do we know what the rust colored spots do? They look like they may be sensors of some sort; of course they could just be part of a structural discretion that has a surface appearance. There is a lot going on in a small space ;-) g
