HiFlyers (11x17) for April 2024: uahirise.org/epo/hiflyers/
HiSlides for April 2024: uahirise.org/epo/hislides/
ICYMI: HiPODs for 22-26 April 2024 uahirise.org/updates/
Alright, let’s try this again, shall we? THIS is today’s HiRISE 3D pic from today’s HiPOD. uahirise.org/anaglyph/ESP_0… NASA/JPL-Caltech/UArizona
HiPOD: A Great Dark Spot This observation targets a pit partially filled with layered material and surrounded by banded terrain, as seen in Context Camera data . The relationship between the banded terrain and the layered material in the pit is unclear. uahirise.org/hipod/ESP_0822…
HiPOD: Defrosting Dunes This image shows a field a sand dunes while seasonal carbon dioxide frost is sublimating. This process is not at all uniform, creating a pattern of dark spots with bright frost in the troughts of polygons. uahirise.org/ESP_082672_1180 NASA/JPL/UArizona
HiPOD: Gullies in the Depths of Hellas For this image, HiRISE targeted a relatively fresh crater where previous images from the MRO Context Camera appeared to show gullies. uahirise.org/ESP_082273_1360 NASA/JPL-Caltech/UArizona #Mars #science #NASA
HiPOD: Sediment Ponds in Tithonium Chasma This survey of the canyon floor reveals terrain of two distinct ages. The slopes and hilltops here are made up of rough rocky outcrop that was sculpted by impact craters of all sizes. uahirise.org/ESP_082582_1755 NASA/JPL-Caltech/UArizona
Happy Earth Day, from Mars.
HiRISE 3D: Topographic Interactions in Athabasca Valles The request for this image was to retarget for an observation centered on the interactions between lava, topography, and a fissure. uahirise.org/anaglyph/ESP_0… NASA/JPL-Caltech/UArizona #Mars #science #3D
HiPOD: Hydrated Sulfates in Melas Chasma The bright materials are likely to be sediments rich in the hydrated sulfates, and this image shows that most of the material is covered by a thin deposit of dark material, perhaps sand. uahirise.org/ESP_082700_1670 NASA/JPL-Caltech/UArizona
HiPOD: Rocky Mesas of the Nilosyrtis Mensae Region This image targets a portion of a group of honeycomb-textured landforms in northwestern Hellas Planitia, which is part of one of the largest and most ancient impact basins on Mars. uahirise.org/hipod/ESP_0524… NASA/JPL/UArizona
HiPOD: Layered Ice near the South Pole of Mars The two largest ice sheets in the inner solar system are here on Earth, Antarctica and Greenland. The third largest is at the South Pole of Mars and a small part of it is shown here. uahirise.org/hipod/ESP_0236… NASA/JPL/UArizona
Lazlo is also a HiRISE team member who likes photos of Mars.

HiRISE 3D: Pits and Ridges on a Crater Floor Our science goal is to measure topography and investigate how these features formed. uahirise.org/anaglyph/ESP_0… NASA/JPL-Caltech/UArizona #Mars #science #3D
HiPOD: A Channel in Huygens The objective of this observation is to examine small, eroded channels. In this spot are many branched channels that have dark material on their floors. uahirise.org/hipod/ESP_0751… NASA/JPL-Caltech/UArizona #Mars #science #NASA
HiRISE 3D: Ridges West of Vernal Crater These may be large mineralized fracture zones, so our image will help us to investigate further. Full image: uahirise.org/anaglyph/ESP_0… NASA/JPL-Caltech/UArizona #Mars #3D #geology #science
HiPOD: A Ridge in the Low Southern Latitudes The objective of this observation is to determine the nature of a long straight ridge. At a point the ridge seems to disappear at the edge of an old crater and then reappear after a pause. uahirise.org/hipod/ESP_0750… NASA/JPL/UArizona
HiPOD: The Dunes of Change The Mars Orbiter Camera imaged these dunes in 2000, so now we can learn what a multi-decade dune movement average is by taking a new observation to create a MOC-HiRISE temporal pair. uahirise.org/hipod/ESP_0750… NASA/JPL-Caltech/UArizona #Mars #science

Sand + wind = dunes! Planetary scientists compare sand dunes like these on Earth and #Mars to learn more about the geology and climate of the red planet. Mars dunes are dark because they're made from volcanic rock, but the shape of the dunes is very similar.

Today marks 3 Earth years since I landed on Mars. In that time, I’ve collected 23 samples, surpassed 1,000 sols, driven more than 15 miles (24.8 km), and captured thousands of photos of this beautiful planet. There’s so much more to do – and I’m excited to keep exploring!
