Summary

[edit]
Description

Natural color image of Occator Crater, taken by the Dawn spacecraft from an altitude of ~1500 km. Occator Crater hosts a number of bright spots created by cryovolcanic activity. These spots represent zones where water escaped from the interior of the asteroid and evaporated, leaving salt deposits.
