Well, it's official
Ceres looks like a golf ball. A really BIG golfball (about 30% of the mass in the Asteroid Belt)... Anyway, here's a picture taken by Dawn on the 4th of this month.
Taken from an article in Tech Times: NASA Dawn Gets Up Close And Personal in Dwarf Planet Ceres Photo Shoot. Oh well, there go my hopes of it being an alien homeship.. though I suppose if it sat there collecting dust and ice long enough... :) Meanwhile, sure looks pretty from a distance (this IS about 8.5 miles/pixel.)
And for some reason this idiot program won't let me capitalize Ceres in the tags. Frump...

Actually, the alien mother ship is hiding behind it--ceresyncronous right over the Top Flite logo. 😺

FWIW, twas a reference to something that happened in Nicolai's Exodus 8 campaign, when some characters went to visit the Asteroid Belt in one of the alternate worlds and found a derelict L'Drey homeship. A really BIG one...
