      Marin County I get. But the Tetons and parts of western Colorado? An artifact due to low population density I suppose.

            Well, it isn't the Visible V8, but still pretty cool.

                    Seems an ignominious end for such a notable ship.

                          ... both spacecraft recorded temperatures between 30,000 and 50,000 kelvin (54,000 to 90,000 degrees Fahrenheit) in this area, ...

                          Quite surprised that the two spacecrafts could survive such high heat!

                            They most definitely did not. They would have measured it from a safe distance.
