HiPOD: Troughs and Ridges in Reull Vallis Our objective is to determine the nature of a group of ridges, troughs, and pits. They have a certain shape that repeats over and over, that may be affected by the change in the valley’s direction at this point. uahirise.org/hipod/ESP_07739…

HiPOD: In Search Of...Wind Streaks A key feature of wind streaks is their high rate of erosion. Dark wind streaks erode a few centimeters a year. The proposed area appears to be a dark wind streak and is rapidly changing. uahirise.org/hipod/ESP_07735… #Mars #NASA

The first multi-spacecraft science mission to Mars is about to make its big move. Next month, Blue and Gold – the twin spacecraft we built for @NASA and @ucbssl – will swing close past Earth and each fire their main engine in a single, continuous burn, using Earth's gravity to amplify the burn as they set course for Mars. It's a maneuver that's never been successfully done before. Our mission ops team is in full rehearsal mode for @escapade_mars' trans-Mars injection.

The Orionid meteor shower, created by tiny pieces of debris from Halley's Comet, peaks on the night of Oct. 21 - 22. Your best chance to see them comes a few hours before dawn, after the bright Moon sets. Find a dark location, give your eyes time to adjust, and look up.

If Blue Origin goes public, it will have to meet the expectations of shareholders. Jeff Bezos may therefore want to establish a stronger business before committing to a listing. space.com/space-exploration/…

Jeff Bezos is playing the long game with Blue Origin (op-ed)

Why Blue Origin may stay a private company for a while longer.

The white light from stargazing apps can make it harder to spot distant objects in the night sky. Here's how to fix that. space.com/stargazing/skywatc…

Red light, white light: How to preserve your night vision while using stargazing apps

The right apps can take a lot of the work out of stargazing, but they can also stop your eyes from adjusting to the dark. Here's how to use them without ruining your skywatching.
