Two NASA press releases give wildly wrong measurements.

A NASA press release (Ref. 1) says a crack in Snow Queen measures 10
centimeters. Another NASA press release (Ref. 2) says the width of
the
photo in the press releases is 60 centimeters.
In fact, NASA over-stated above two measurements by 250%. Real
measurements and the reason why NASA made the mistakes are noted in
Fig. 1 and Fig. 2.
