Relief of the trace left by MASCOT on the regolith about 14 s after the impact for a moderate-friction regolith. The color bar represents the height of the regolith (bed and ejecta). MASCOT lands in the Back-Corner-First configuration with an impact angle of 15° (left) and at 45° (right). The regolith is 30 cm deep. For the 15° impact, MASCOT has not left the surface (its height corners are still under the surface level), whereas it did after 7.5 s for the 45° impact.
