Philae Landing Site 3

This is a 3D graphic of the Philae landing site. The angle of the sun is actually during Winter in this northern latitude, but it shows the topography well. The elevation of the features is a gestimate since this was made from a 2D photo. The neck region and the "North Pole" is at the top of the image. In the top right, half covered in shadow, is landing site B.
