Position in the previous image

Partial view of the Mandelbrot set. Step 7 of a zoom sequence: Each of this crowns consists of similar "seahorse tails". Their number increases with powers of 2, a typical phenomenon in the environment of satellites. The unique path to the spiral center mentioned in zoom step 5 passes the satellite from the groove of the cardioid to the top of the "antenna" on the "head". Also observe that the starting view is located in the center.
Coordinates of the center: Re(c) = -.743,643,135, Im(c) = .131,825,963
Horizontal diameter of the image: .000,014,628
