HiPOD: Beyond Arakeen
This observation of dunes in the northern polar region of Mars was taken to monitor seasonal changes. The dark spots are the results of sublimating ice that exposes darker material under the top layer.

Here’s an annotated version of our comet image.
We also want to thank our downlink and uplink teams who spent a huge amount of time working on this. Our camera was not designed to image interstellar objects 19 million miles away, but their hard work and planning paid off.

HiPOD: Ridges in Isidis
The objective of this observation is to study the transition area where the density of pitted cones changes significantly. Isidis Planitia is an impact basin where volcanic and fluvial/glacial landforms are abundant.
