Hubble Space Telescope images of Pluto
Pluto. Hubble Space Telescope (HST) images showing two hemispheres of Pluto, the smallest and outermost planet in the solar system. The two main images have been processed by computer to bring out the brightness differences on the surface. The original raw images are at the top left of each panel. Twelve bright regions have been identified, including a large north polar cap. It is thought that the surface of Pluto is largely nitrogen ice, with methane and carbon monoxide ices as impurities. In size and surface composition, Pluto is similar to Triton, a moon of Neptune. No spacecraft has yet visited Pluto

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the awe-inspiring beauty of Pluto, the smallest and outermost planet in our solar system. Captured by the renowned Hubble Space Telescope (HST), these images reveal two distinct hemispheres of this enigmatic celestial body. Through advanced computer processing techniques, the brightness differences on Pluto's surface have been accentuated, providing a clearer view of its topography. The original raw images are also included for comparison in the top left corner of each panel. Within these breathtaking visuals, twelve luminous regions have been identified, including a remarkable north polar cap. Scientists believe that nitrogen ice dominates Pluto's surface composition, with traces of methane and carbon monoxide ices serving as impurities. Interestingly, Pluto shares striking similarities with Triton - a moon orbiting Neptune - both in terms of size and surface composition. Despite its intriguing nature, no spacecraft has yet ventured to explore this distant dwarf planet up close. This extraordinary image print from Science Photo Library offers an incredible glimpse into the mysteries that lie within our vast cosmos. It serves as a testament to humanity's insatiable curiosity about the universe we inhabit and reminds us of how much more there is to discover beyond our own planetary boundaries.
