Ceres. Computer artwork of the dwarf planet Ceres
Ceres. Computer artwork of the dwarf planet Ceres, the largest object in the asteroid belt with a diameter of 950 kilometres. A dwarf planet is defined as an object large enough to be spherical due to its gravity, and with an independent orbit around the Sun (so not a satellite of a planet). A true planet has to dominate its orbit around the Sun. Ceres fails because it is one of many objects in the asteroid belt

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print showcases the captivating beauty of Ceres, the largest object in the asteroid belt. With a diameter of 950 kilometers, this dwarf planet is an astronomical wonder. The computer artwork perfectly captures its spherical shape, a result of its gravity pulling it into a perfect globe. Ceres holds a unique position in our solar system as it meets all the criteria to be classified as a dwarf planet. Unlike satellites that orbit planets, Ceres boasts an independent orbit around the Sun. However, it falls short of being considered a true planet because it does not dominate its orbit like other celestial bodies do. The image invites us to delve into the realm of planetary science and cosmology. It reminds us that our solar system is filled with countless wonders waiting to be explored and understood. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing sphere suspended against the backdrop of space, we are reminded of humanity's insatiable curiosity about what lies beyond our home planet. Science Photo Library has once again captured an awe-inspiring moment from our universe's vast tapestry. This print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and scientific documentation, reminding us that even within seemingly desolate regions like the asteroid belt, there exists immense beauty and intrigue for those willing to explore further.
