Neptune from Triton
Neptune from Triton. Artwork of a geyser (black) erupting on Triton, the largest moon of Neptune (upper right). Triton, among the coldest places in the solar system, has temperatures of -235 degrees Celsius. The nitrogen and methane atmosphere forms ice on the surface. The Voyager 2 space probe passed near Triton in August 1989. Pictures were beamed back of dark stains in the sunlit regions. These were explained as soot, ejected by geysers of nitrogen gas and blown into streaks by the prevailing winds. Triton orbits 355, 000 kilometres from Neptune, the eighth planet, and has a gravity that is less than one tenth that of Earth

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Neptune from Triton" showcases the mesmerizing beauty and chilling nature of our solar system. The artwork captures a breathtaking moment as a geyser, depicted in black, erupts on Triton, Neptune's largest moon. Known for its extreme cold temperatures reaching -235 degrees Celsius, Triton is among the coldest places in our cosmic neighborhood. The image reveals the nitrogen and methane atmosphere of Triton forming ice on its surface, creating an otherworldly landscape. Voyager 2 space probe passed near this enigmatic moon in August 1989 and transmitted back images that unveiled dark stains scattered across sunlit regions. Scientists explained these intriguing marks as soot ejected by geysers of nitrogen gas propelled into streaks by prevailing winds. Triton orbits at a distance of approximately 355,000 kilometers from Neptune, the eighth planet in our solar system. Its gravity is less than one-tenth that of Earth's, adding to its ethereal allure. This horizontal artwork beautifully illustrates the mysterious elements present within our universe – rocky terrain juxtaposed with icy clouds and rings surrounding this gas giant. As we gaze upon this stunning portrayal created by Science Photo Library, we are reminded of the wonders that lie beyond our own planet's boundaries – a reminder to explore further into the depths of space and unravel more secrets hidden within celestial bodies like Triton and Neptune.
