I am having issues with TwitPic this morning, so will occasionally post new images from the LCROSS camera to this blog entry. I'll Tweet when I've updated it with a new one. Note that the times of the screen caps are probably at least 5 minutes later than the time that they were actually taken by LCROSS.

From ~0405 PDT, labeled thanks to Jason Perry:
