Add Image to Favorite List 2015-03-02 Ceres Dawn
2560x1440x3
This artist's concept shows NASA's Dawn spacecraft arriving at the dwarf planet Ceres, the most massive body in the asteroid belt. Dawn is the first mission to visit a dwarf planet.
PIA18921:
Dawn's Arrival at Dwarf Planet (Artist Concept)
Full Resolution:     TIFF (11.06 MB)     JPEG (137.7 kB)
Add Image to Favorite List 2015-03-02 Ceres Dawn
2560x1440x3
This artist's concept shows NASA's Dawn spacecraft arriving at the dwarf planet Ceres. Dawn travels through space using a technology called ion propulsion, with ions glowing with blue light are accelerated out of an engine, giving the spacecraft thrust.

Dawn's Blue Glow (Artist Concept)
Full Resolution:     TIFF (11.06 MB)     JPEG (174.9 kB)
Add Image to Favorite List 2015-04-13 Ceres Dawn
1377x476x3
This map-projected view of Ceres was created from images taken by NASA's Dawn spacecraft during its initial approach to the dwarf planet, prior to being captured into orbit in March 2015.

Dawn's First Color Map of Ceres
Full Resolution:     TIFF (1.967 MB)     JPEG (175.4 kB)
Add Image to Favorite List 2015-06-08 Pluto 900x900x3
This artist's concept of the frosty surface of Pluto with Charon and our sun as backdrops illustrates that while sunlight is much weaker than it is here on Earth, it isn't as dark as you might expect.

Add Image to Favorite List 2015-11-10 Pluto New Horizons
1016x766x3
Most inner moons in the solar system keep one face pointed toward their central planet; this frame from an animation by NASA's New Horizons shows that certainly isn't the case with the small moons of Pluto, which behave like spinning tops.
