Hi everyone,
looking through the astronomy section lately I was struck by what appear to be traces of erased lines under the main drawing on f68v1:

You can see them peeking through between the stars in the two sections at roughly 12:00 and most prominently at about 4:00.
The lines don't seem to be bleedthrough from the other side, nor could they be explained by transfer from the other foldout pages.
I wonder if they are remnants from a former design idea for the page, or if we might, after all, have to reconsider the palimpsest possibility.
