Clyde
解説(安達)/ Comment by Makoto Adachi
Clyde Foster氏の観測では、Hellasの形がはっきり円形に写っている。
Hellasの南西部の輪郭がぼやけているのはダストストームによって広がった砂が地表に落ちて積もった跡だと思われる。
By the observation of Mr. Clyde Foster, form of Hellas appears in the circle clearly.
As for a southwest outline of Hellas becoming dim, it is thought that it is the trace which the sand which opened falls into the surface of the earth,
and was piled up by dust storm.

Somewhat improved conditions for this capture from this afternoon. Hellas coming into view.
