  1. Are they releasing HQ photos? Because everything I’ve seen so far is potato. 

  2. I’m not 100% sure so please correct if wrong.

    See the yellow line on the left? I believe it was mentioned that is the end of atmosphere and for the most part is yellow due to neutral sodium. Normally completely invisible to most sensors and are remnants of meteorites that burnt up.

    I don’t believe we ever gotten a good picture of it before so it might be time to update the wiki. Someone less lazy than I of course.
