HiPOD: A Flow Intersection At this location, a portion of the Cerberus Fossae seems to intersect with the edge of a lava flow or other feature nearly perpendicular to the fossae. This could be a good location to investigate stratigraphic relationships. uahirise.org/hipod/ESP_06963…

🐬 Why is this Omani dolphin pink? It’s biology, not pigment. Some dolphins have thin skin full of blood vessels and flush pink as they release heat. Others, like Risso’s, gain pale scars with age until they look almost white. 🌊 #PinkDolphin #Oman #MarineBiology

Offworld Cool 🪐 This dune field, almost 5 km (3 mi) wide, sits at the bottom of an unnamed crater. Dark spots form through sublimation, when a solid turns directly into gas, exposing the darker subsurface. 25 Jan 2023 | 312 km altitude Image: NASA/JPL-Caltech/UArizona

Mobula rays can leap over 2 meters out of the water and hang in the air for seconds. Why? Science suggests mate signaling, shaking off parasites on impact, or long-distance communication through the splash. Maybe even just play. 🌊
