  20. Pluto and it's moon Charon Shine in False Color

    **This image was taken at 3:38 a.m. EDT on July 13, one day before New Horizons’ closest approach to Pluto.** New Horizons has obtained impressive new images of Pluto and its large moon Charon that highlight their compositional diversity. These are not actual color images of Pluto and Charon—they are shown here in exaggerated colors t...

    ✧ Atmosphere of Pluto ✧

    The atmosphere of Pluto is the layer of gases surrounding the dwarf planet Pluto. It consists mainly of nitrogen, with smaller amounts of methane and carbon monoxide, produced by the sublimation of surface ices. Its surface pressure is about 100,000 times lower than that of Earth's atmosphere, and varies with P...

  23. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🪐❄️ #Pluto’s reclassification as a #dwarfplanet in 2006 continues to prompt debate.

    Scientists disagree about the #IAU’s definition of a #planet, particularly its requirement that a planet clear its orbital neighborhood. The discussion also considers #Eris, #NewHorizons #findings, and competing approaches to classifying worlds in the #solarsystem.

  25. Ammonia Ice Clouds on Jupiter

    The top cloud layer on Jupiter is thought to consist of ammonia ice, but most of that ammonia hides from spectrometers. It does not absorb light in the same way ammonia does.
