Mysterious white spots on the dwarf planet Ceres

Unexpected discovery related to scientists has been discovered.

The main author of the study of Nathan Stein, a planetary scientist at the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, told Space that many bright white spots scattered across Ceres's dwarf planet could be traces of.

Bright white spots appear scattered on Ceres dwarf planet.

Evidence suggests that there may or may be a liquid ocean that exists beneath the surface of the planet Ceres.

Stein and his team classified more than 300 light spots on the Ceres dwarf planet surface into four specific groups.

Explaining the phenomenon, experts say there may be an ocean that is or exists below the planet. The weight of the ice pressing down on the geologic layer below can cause the ocean salt water to be pushed up, squeezed and floated through geological cracks.

The amount of salt water is then frozen and may be one of the main ingredients that make up the mysterious white light trail.

According to Stein, most of the bright spots on Ceres dwarf planet are quite young, no more than a few dozen million years old.
