Gedeone drawing back itself into its lair
This "object" (that we classified as "Gedeone") is in motion (yellow arrow point to direction). Notice the blur effect (white arrows). The shadow casted on the ground of course shows the position  where the object was while the camera shutter was open (0.5 ms about) and is protruding partly over the crater wall, meaning that the object or the dust cloud it raised is standing over it.

Notice that other objects in the same picture show no "blur motion" except one, already classified as "weirdness" and visible in that section.

After a long discussion we came to conclusions that the blur in this picture is not due to moviment while the camera shutter was open, but from the release of dust while the gedeone was moving in three different phases while drawing back itself in the hole.
