Caption: Figure 6.

Animated sequence showing clusters of boulders to the upper right and lower left, as well as a general lack of boulders in other directions. The sequence covers the 12 s before LICIACube’s close approach, showing the apparent motion of the boulders due to the changing viewpoint. Numbered circles highlight a selection of 16 boulders that are tracked through the sequence and discussed in Section 5. Images were processed by dividing out an r–1.6 radial profile.
