HiPOD: Starfish & (No) Coffee

Our science goal with this observation is to assess winds from these seasonal fans in a lightly imaged longitude region informally dubbed “starfish”. The dark fans are the result of sublimation. The area also has a long monitoring history for these types of small-scale changes. (The title is a reference to a song. Can you guess the artist?)
