 		CONGRATS to everyone who had a hand in solving this one! It was truly a group effort! Wink

Sometimes we can't see the forest for the trees... When some were starting to focus on Mars, I decided it was time to throw my 'find' out there. I'm glad I was able to help a little, even when I wasn't sure if/how it *would* help. Thank goodness for site 'hiccups' and Solitair! LOL Laughing

Well done all. Off now to kick myself.

 		Sorry if this has been dealt with, but what has the solve got to do with 'Elucidate'?

MC have said the titles are there for a reason, but I can't unpick this one..

 		I was thinking the same thing, maybe we should look into it.

 		Finally got around to some more solving tonight, and couldn't resist looking in on this thread to see the final answer - great efforts from all concerned, well done.

Oh, and yes, I spent a *long* time looking at various images of the surface of Mars/Phobos/Deimos/Moon/etc, etc, etc....

One definition for 'elucidate' is:
To make clear or plain, especially by explanation; clarify.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
*Maybe* the answer of 'Mr Watson' is clear as a 'Bell'? Razz

 		Wow! I was completely on the wrong track. I thought that the image resembled the picture of Don Quixote and Sancho Panza : The age of enlightenment, deluision being the key to reson etc. Did anyone else mistakenly think this? Shocked

 		Great work on this solve! I thought that Shuffled would be solved before this one. Congrats everyone!

Also, I think Mind Candy deserve some credit for the creation and execution of this puzzle. I showed this card to many people and they are all intrigued by it - more than any other card that I have.

 		Okay...

Now, I consider myself relatively competent at solving these things, but this is ridiculous! Sure, it's a Silver card but this is just bloody infernal Twisted Evil

Now I feel like I can't scratch off the panel and add this to my solves, even though I know the answer.

I'm fairly new to this so maybe someone has said this before but Elucidation is a term used in chemistry for analysis involving NMR - IR Spectroscopy/Spectrometry as in the following link


http://matematicas.udea.edu.co/~carlopez/index2a.html

Although not in the same area as the answer i guess it's along the same lines. That's how i got started until i figured i was gone a little off track.

I knew my chemistry degree would come in useful at some stage!

Elucidate - clarify: make clear and (more) comprehensible

They were just saying "Solve this card"
