Default Wild 2

I can't say I am very much into cometary geology, but this is my
interpretation of the Stardust pictures of Wild 2: no one would have
expected such an heavily cratered body.


It's premature to call the features you see "craters". At the press
conference yesterday, it was noted that they could be erosion features.
The highest resolution images should help to distinguish the cases.
