Regions in the south of the Imhotep region on the large lobe of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko reveal round features similar to those seen in the centre of the same region.

The image was taken with Rosetta's OSIRIS narrow-angle camera on 31 October 2014 from a distance of 33 km from the comet centre. The image scale is 63 cm/pixel. Its context is shown in the inset at upper left. The clean inset image of the Imhotep region is available here.

More images of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko can be found in the '67P - by Rosetta' collection.
