Are We Human or Are We Dancers?

The young rayed impact crater Petipa lights up the top portion of today's image. Petipa formed near a boundary between intermediate terrain (brownish in this presentation, in top part of image) and low-reflectance material (dark blue, in the middle of the image). Petipa, Fonteyn and Nureyev, were acclaimed ballet dancers.
