Europa or Frying Pan?

This image was tweeted out by the NASA Europa Mission account the other day:

Europa Frying Pan

One of these images is of Europa, Jupiter’s icy moon, and the other eight are frying pans. Can you pick Europa out? Hint: frying pans tend not to have impact craters.

Update: The photos of the frying pans were taken by Christopher Jonassen, whose work I featured back in 2011 (which I had totally forgotten about). At the time, I even joked about the pans looking like a Jovian moon. kottke.org is a flat circle. (thx, tony)


Frying Panoramas

What’s this then? Jovian moon? Instagrammed photo of Earth taken from the ISS? Head of a nail?

Jonassen Frying Pan

Nope, it’s actually a well-worn frying pan from a project by Christopher Jonassen.
