November\u2019s best space pics are here. <\/strong>Although they didn\u2019t get a chance to be included in our Best of 2023 campaign, there were some jaw-dropping space images released this past month. We\u2019ve collected our favorite space images from November, including this ridiculously cool picture of the 33 Raptor engines that power the Starship launch vehicle, which took off on Nov. 18 for its second test flight. Image credit: SpaceX. <\/em><\/p>\n Lucy\u2019s discovery of Dinkinesh\u2019s moonlets was a highlight of this year. <\/strong>The mission to investigate Jupiter’s Trojan asteroids made headlines in November when it flew past asteroid Dinkinesh and discovered a pair of tiny asteroids orbiting it. Hal Levison and Simone Marchi, the mission’s principal and deputy principal investigators, join this week\u2019s Planetary Radio to discuss the asteroid rendezvous and the surprising discovery it made.<\/p>\n The Planetary Society is celebrating an anniversary! <\/strong>It\u2019s been 44 years since Carl Sagan, Bruce Murray, and Louis Friedman signed the founding documents on Nov. 30, 1979, to establish The Planetary Society.
