Neptune from Triton - Illustration - Neptune from the surface of Triton - Neptune seen from the icy surface of his Triton satellite. White cirrus clouds race across a crescent Neptune as it presides over Triton's bleak and frozen south polar region. Sheets of frozen nitrogen ice with traces of other substances, including frozen methane and carbon monoxide, overlie Triton's darker material. The ice has turned pink due to the interaction with ultraviolet light from the distant Sun. Further south all of the surface of Triton is covered by such ices

Ice Volcano on Triton - Illustration - Ice volcano on Triton - Cryovolcanoes and geysers of nitrogen and methane have been observed on the surface of the Triton satellite. There is evidence that the south pole of Neptune's satellite Triton is host to dozens of ice volcanoes, or geysers. One such eruption was observed to shoot a towering jet of material to a height of five miles, while the tenuous nitrogen atmosphere carried the smoky plume over 80 miles “” downwind.” The eruptive material is believed to be a combination of liquid nitrogen, dust, and methane compounds driven by seasonal heating from the Sun

Sunrise seen from Triton - Artist view - Sunrise on Triton - Artist view - Sunrise seen from Triton, the largest satellite in Neptune. A diminutive sun rises over Triton's hard and glistening landscape of rock, frozen water, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and methane. The little warmth that reaches Triton's surface induces a nitrogen and methane haze, forming a very tenuous atmosphere. It is very cold on Triton with temperatures falling as low as minus 391o F. While as much as 25% of Triton may be composed of water ice, it is very unlikely that there is any liquid water, or life, on this world

Neptune from Triton - Illustration - Triton's shadow on Neptune - Neptune seen from the icy surface of his Triton satellite. The satellite projects its shadow on the Giant Planet. A full Neptune washes Triton's frozen surface with an indigo light, the only source of illumination on this now Triton's dark side. Fortuitous alignment of the Sun, Triton and Neptune causes this satellite's shadow to fall on Neptune's distant cloud tops 220 thousand miles away. This view is from within a deep, crater - like depression on Triton's northern hemisphere

Neptune and Triton - Illustration - Neptune from Triton orbit - Neptune and its Triton satellite (foreground). Looking like an over - ripe cantaloupe, Neptune's satellite Triton is in the foreground while Neptune itself looms on the upper right. At a distance of 220 thousand miles, Triton is about the same distance from Neptune as the moon is from the Earth. A frozen world that's somewhat smaller than the moon, Triton is the seventh and largest of Neptune's satellites, completing an orbit every six days. Triton is believed to be composed primarily of rock and water ice with traces of methane and other compounds

Neptune - Illustration - Artist's view of Neptune with its ring system and large dark spot observed by the Voyager 2 probe in 1989. This image suggests how Neptune might look from a position in space above the plane of its rings. Like Uranus, Neptune is a Gas Giant, composed primarily of hydrogen and helium gases surrounding a relatively small, dense core of molten rock and metal. Also like Uranus, Neptune has charcoal - colored rings, although they appear to be fewer in number than Uranus's. While Neptune's diameter is slightly less than Uranus ', it has more mass. Neptune's blue color is due to the presence of methane in its upper atmosphere. The dark spot in the southern hemisphere beneath the rings, dubbed “” The Great Dark Spot,””” is believed to be a giant storm which was active in 1989 when Voyager 2 photographed Neptune. Just beyond the rings at Neptune's 7 o'clock position, barely discernable from the background stars, is the tiny satellite Proteus. With an average diameter of

Earth and Moon - Artist view - Earth and Moon. Artwork - The Earth and the Moon represented on the scale (size but not distance) against the background of stars. Artist view of the Earth and the Moon showing their actual relative size (but not the actual distance between the two). Earth's equatorial diameter is 12,756 km while the Moon's diameter is 3,476 km. The Moon is actually one of the largest natural satellites in the Solar System, smaller only than Jupiter's Ganymede, Callisto and Io as well as Saturn's Titan, but bigger than Jupiter's Europa, Neptune's Triton and the planet Pluto

Ring around the Dwarf Planet Haumea - Illustration - Ring around Dwarf Planet Haumea - Artwork - Haumea, (136108 Haumea), is a transneptunian dwarf planet (a plutoid) of the Solar System member of the Kuiper belt. Discovered in 2004, Haumea has two known natural satellites, a very fast rotation (less than 4 h), an ellipsoidal shape and a high albedo caused by water ice crystals on its surface. Haumea would measure between 1,960 and 2,500 km, barely less than Pluto and twice as much as Ceres, the smallest known dwarf planet. Haumea, minor-planet designation 136108 Haumea, is a dwarf planet located beyond Neptune's orbit. It was discovered in 2004 and was recognized as a dwarf planet in 2008. Haumea's mass is about one-third that of Pluto, it has an elongated shape with a rapid rotation and has two known moons, Hi iaka and Namaka

Geyser sur Enceladus - Artist view - Water geyser on Enceladus - Artist view - Artist view of an ice geyser on the surface of the Enceladus satellite. In the sky, the planet Saturn and its satellite Mimas. Liquid water reaches the surface of Enceladus' south pole and drives a massive plume of ice crystals into the sky. The combination of Enceladus' low surface gravity and the geyser's force accelerate the crystals to escape velocity, where sunlight breaks the water molecules down into their constituent atoms of hydrogen and oxygen. Saturn itself appears low on the horizon due to the proximity to Enceladus' pole. The small object immediately to Saturn's left is another icy moon named Mimas. Somewhat smaller than Enceladus and closer to Saturn, Mimas sprints around Saturn in slightly less than one Earth day. In March 2006 Nasa's Cassini probe revealed evidence of water - driven geysers on the surface of Enceladus. At first glance Enceladus doesn't seem to be a likely host for liquid wate
