That thing is close to round, spherical or whatever it's called. Interesting photo Wade, thanks for sharing.
All depends on size, for rocky object I have heard that they need to be 300 miles or bigger. Vesta is about 326 miles.

I didn't see this until just now, 10 pm on the 3rd., and immediately knew what it was. I believe this is the south pole.
