Keep digging but you might not like what you find.
edit on 8-11-2012 by pez1975 because: (no reason given)
The compression artifacts are particularly obvious when a particle (cosmic ray or solar energetic, charged particle) hits the CCD detector on the spacecraft head-on. (Grazing hits show up as bright streaks.) The compression scheme has a hard time mathematically representing sharp, single- or few-pixel features, and you get a characteristic pattern of a bright dot in the middle of a compression block (a subsection of the image) surrounded by a pattern of dark dots.
I tend to accept the NASA explanation because the image seems "wrong." If this were a sphere reflecting sunlight from a location near the sun you would expect to see a bright spot - the sun reflection - on the side of the sphere closest to the sun. The "sphere", however, appears dark on the side toward the sun and there is a bright spot on the side away from the sun.
