A topo map would not show all of the vegetation.

"Sorry, should had added that they were the nose cone." Actually, the debris in those photos is thought to be part of the underside of the rear of one of the wings. VPG

(Why does this tag line keep showing up?)
To: chookter
It broke up in a re-entry to a landing in America. It was not re-entering over America by chance, fate or the direction of God. It would only have broken up over another country if it was being stolen and landed in another country in which case we would be happy the crew crashed. But if it had been on course for a landing at Edwards AFB, all of it would have ended up in the Pacific Ocean.

OK, then thank God that they weren't landing at Edwards so that the wreckage wouldn't have been in the Pacific when they crashed.
