Pluto throws up another intriguing puzzle. These images show
a strange region on Pluto with "haloed" craters In the black and white image, you can see the bright walls and rims of the craters are a contrast to the dark floors and land between the craters.
The lower image is in false color and shows methane ice in purple and water ice in blue. So we can see that the water ice is on crater floors and the land between the craters, but the methane ice settles on the rims and walls.
Why does this happen? Why doesn't happen elsewhere? No one knows. Pluto continues to surprise.
