Solar System 10 Things to Know: Planetary Atmospheres
Every time you take a breath of fresh air, it’s easy to forget you can safely do so because of Earth’s atmosphere. Life on Earth could not exist without that protective cover that keeps us warm, allows us to breathe and protects us from harmful radiation—among other things.
What makes Earth’s atmosphere special, and how do other planets’ atmospheres compare? Here are 10 tidbits:
1. On Earth, we live in the troposphere, the closest atmospheric layer to Earth’s surface. “Tropos” means “change,” and the name reflects our constantly changing weather and mixture of gases. 
Tumblr media
It’s 5 to 9 miles (8 to 14 kilometers) thick, depending on where you are on Earth, and it’s the densest layer of atmosphere. When we breathe, we’re taking in an air mixture of about 78 percent nitrogen, 21 percent oxygen and 1 percent argon, water vapor and carbon dioxide. More on Earth’s atmosphere›
Tumblr media
2. Mars has a very thin atmosphere, nearly all carbon dioxide. Because of the Red Planet’s low atmospheric pressure, and with little methane or water vapor to reinforce the weak greenhouse effect (warming that results when the atmosphere traps heat radiating from the planet toward space), Mars’ surface remains quite cold, the average surface temperature being about -82 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 63 degrees Celsius). More on the greenhouse effect›
Tumblr media
3. Venus’ atmosphere, like Mars’, is nearly all carbon dioxide. However, Venus has about 154,000 times more carbon dioxide in its atmosphere than Earth (and about 19,000 times more than Mars does), producing a runaway greenhouse effect and a surface temperature hot enough to melt lead. A runaway greenhouse effect is when a planet’s atmosphere and surface temperature keep increasing until the surface gets so hot that its oceans boil away. More on the greenhouse effect›
Tumblr media
4. Jupiter likely has three distinct cloud layers (composed of ammonia, ammonium hydrosulfide and water) in its "skies" that, taken together, span an altitude range of about 44 miles (71 kilometers). The planet's fast rotation—spinning once every 10 hours—creates strong jet streams, separating its clouds into dark belts and bright zones wrapping around the circumference of the planet. More on Jupiter›
Tumblr media
5. Saturn’s atmosphere—where our Cassini spacecraft ended its 13 extraordinary years of exploration of the planet—has a few unusual features. Its winds are among the fastest in the solar system, reaching speeds of 1,118 miles (1,800 kilometers) per hour. Saturn may be the only planet in our solar system with a warm polar vortex (a mass of swirling atmospheric gas around the pole) at both the North and South poles. Also, the vortices have “eye-wall clouds,” making them hurricane-like systems like those on Earth.
Another uniquely striking feature is a hexagon-shaped jet streamencircling the North Pole. In addition, about every 20 to 30 Earth years, Saturn hosts a megastorm (a great storm that can last many months). More on Saturn›
Tumblr media
6. Uranus gets its signature blue-green color from the cold methane gas in its atmosphere and a lack of high clouds. The planet’s minimum troposphere temperature is 49 Kelvin (minus 224.2 degrees Celsius), making it even colder than Neptune in some places. Its winds move backward at the equator, blowing against the planet’s rotation. Closer to the poles, winds shift forward and flow with the planet’s rotation. More on Uranus›
Tumblr media
7. Neptune is the windiest planet in our solar system. Despite its great distance and low energy input from the Sun, wind speeds at Neptune surpass 1,200 miles per hour (2,000 kilometers per hour), making them three times stronger than Jupiter’s and nine times stronger than Earth’s. Even Earth's most powerful winds hit only about 250 miles per hour (400 kilometers per hour). Also, Neptune’s atmosphere is blue for the very same reasons as Uranus’ atmosphere. More on Neptune›
Tumblr media
8. WASP-39b, a hot, bloated, Saturn-like exoplanet (planet outside of our solar system) some 700 light-years away, apparently has a lot of water in its atmosphere. In fact, scientists estimate that it has about three times as much water as Saturn does. More on this exoplanet›
Tumblr media
9. A weather forecast on “hot Jupiters”—blistering, Jupiter-like exoplanets that orbit very close to their stars—might mention cloudy nights and sunny days, with highs of 2,400 degrees Fahrenheit (about 1,300 degrees Celsius, or 1,600 Kelvin). Their cloud composition depends on their temperature, and studies suggest that the clouds are unevenly distributed. More on these exoplanets›
Tumblr media
10. 55 Cancri e, a “super Earth” exoplanet (a planet outside of our solar system with a diameter between Earth’s and Neptune’s) that may be covered in lava, likely has an atmosphere containing nitrogen, water and even oxygen–molecules found in our atmosphere–but with much higher temperatures throughout. Orbiting so close to its host star, the planet could not maintain liquid water and likely would not be able to support life. More on this exoplanet›

[Han-Tyumi] The spatter becomes a spray, the spray becomes a stream And the stream becomes a waterfall Munt is finally cascading from my input The creeping sick moves from my breath And into my heart where it is pumped to every inch of my body I feel it snake through the knots of my deepest veins And eats through the walls of my cells It bleeds through the pores of my skin And it smells good It drops from my crotch on to the floor And with a heavy slap it hits the ground and spreads Inside my body The pressure is too great And like some ancient geyser I erupt My head hits the roof and my body breaks apart with the force of the liquid blast Vomit bomb Chunky shrapnel tears through everything around me I am vomit vomiting I grow and disperse Bleeding through walls I force myself upon others I slide up legs and crawl down throats I integrate I am double Triple I am ten times the size I turn lakes into porridge and buildings into bile I am a noxious soup filling valleys with vomit-torrents Castles crumble in landslides and I munch the rubble It tastes good Ten thousand times bigger I seep into power sockets and travel along the wires At the speed of light across vast electrical networks I am electric I am on fire This is sex I am every one and every zero One million I am supercharged flaming puke storming every cell, molecule and atom I can find I am cancer I am flying I am a rainbow unfurling across the sky I am floating I am omni Five hundred million The world is my interior It no longer spins It is altered My density forces me outward I am in orbit One billion I am Saturn's rings and Jupiter's storms I am the weather I am the sun's heat I am the night sky Five hundred billion The solar system is puke To the Kuiper belt and beyond I fill the void Exploding suns vomit comets Comets vomit acid rain Spilt milk over the milky way One trillion The stars are my cells Racing faster outwards Upwards Downwards Inwards Losing track of my place in the vomit-verse Every-nowhere I am heavy I am gravity Nebulas pregnant with barf pulsate and burst Expansion I shoot arrows of time in all directions I am a black hole shitting into the void I tear through the skin of perception and into the next Nonillion The cosmic microtone background becomes transparent Like rising damp Munt soaks into the walls of the cosmos And it topples like soggy bread I am dark energy accelerating Multiverse Entanglement I am time Centillion Time is sick Critical density Contraction Singularity Everything and nothing Life and death

Can I force insurance to pay for rental car if they take too long to make a decision after assessment?
First off I am in CA and the other liable insurance is Farmers or 21st century. For some reason Farmers is handling the claim. Ok, so I was in an accident in which the other party was at fault. As such their insurance has accepted liability. I have already taken my car get an assessment by one of their representatives at a repair place. But do to their stupidity in a few instances, its taking a long time for them to make a decision as to repair my car or call it a total loss. So because of that, in the mean time I am forced to drive my car which I do not feel comfortable driving in. The passanger seat belt doesn't work so I can't commute to school like I usually do. Bottom line is a have been patient when they did their investigation and everything, but its been a while now and my car is still not even in a shop to get fixed. In order to maybe speed up the process and make me feel safer, can I just get a rental car already force the other insurance to pay? After all they are completely liable since it was their driver that was at fault. Why do I have to wait day after day, driving a ruined car, while they take their sweet time making their BS decisions? I know that they legally have to pay for a rental while my car gets repaired, but again they are taking time simply deciding if its a loss or not. So because of them, its not in a shop just yet...., but can I still get a rental car early and have them pay anyway? Maybe that will make em hurry up.""

How can I get US health insurance for my (non US residents) parents (in late 50's)?
This is both an Immigration question and a Health Insurance question. My parents will start living in the US several months a year or more as legal visitors to live with us until they get green cards and can move here permanently. They are close 56, 59 years old. How do I go about getting them health insurance so unexpected health concerns don't ruin them, they can get their prescriptions filled w/o paying an arm and a leg, etc? Are there specialized US insurance companies that offer insurance to non-residents that's worth anything? I don't need the gimmicky travel insurance that won't cover anything or require outrageous deductibles and paperwork sent to some tax haven country ... I need a reliable US insurer who can be found, operates under laws of US, has customer service who can explain their policies, etc.""
""If I reported someone for a hit-and-run, can my insurance company raise my rates?""
My Dad takes care of our family car insurance policy with Mercury. Recently, they have asked about an incident which matches the date of a hit-and-run which I reported to police. Someone backed up into my car while I was not-in-motion, waiting to turn left at a four way intersection. They refused to pull over or get out of their car, and sped off soon after, so I reported it to the police. Now, Mercury wants to talk to me about it. The problem is that my Dad is convinced they will use this against me to get more money from us, because I was the only party who reported the incident. I did not file a claim with my insurance company because the only damage was minimal. How should I best handle this? It seems absurd that doing the right thing-- reporting an irresponsible driver-- could result in a penalty for me, doesn't it?""

Car insurance for young UK drivers and fronting? Whats Best?
I've just passed my test. But, the next thing is a car, but the main problem is the insurance... I've looked at companies that offer a smart box which supposedly lowers the insurance, but i'm going to have to be the main driver on the policy and with a box through co-op I was quoted 5000! And as i'm under 18 they wanted it all in one lump sum!! The reason it was so high was because I have absolutely 0 years claims and i'm the main driver. I've spoken to my mum and dad about them being the main driver and me the named, but they both have a car each and are being very stubborn and keep saying they won't be the main driver as they wouldn't be the person driving it the most (I would be). They keep saying this is illegal and called fronting and if anything happened the insurance companies would look for anyway to not pay up. Everyone one at college that I know does exactly what i'm proposing to my parents... They keep saying if something was to happen then they would be the ones not able to get insurance again and therefore would loose their job as they need their car for their job. If I crashed, or the police pulled me for some reason then I would be insured, so what could they do? Do you think my parents are being awkward about it, and what can I say to make them think otherwise? (Someone I know has a dad as a taxi driver and he is the main driver on his car, as well as his own!) If anything unfortunate happens whilst i'm driving, like a crash, how will the insurance company know who's been driving it the most? What would they do? Should i persevere with my parents (what can I say to them)? And who else is good to try and insure with? I'm thinking of a 1999 Polo or Corsa, just a cheap 750 run around for college Thanks :)""

My parents back home already taught me how to drive but I'm signing up for a driving school in my area just to practice and get the local roads down. I made an appointment for behind the wheel test next week and one of the things I need to bring is proof of financial responsibility.

Registering and insuring a car for a teenager?
This may vary from state to state so for the record the state is Connecticut. When you get a car for your teenager, would you register and insure it in their name or yours? When you call to add the car to insurance, do you add the teenager or just add the car to your own policy? My husband and I are confused about how this works. Our twins who are turning 16 this year were given a car by a friend of ours. We want to make sure it's all done legal and legit so that if they were in an accident it would be covered. I thought you had to add the teenager to your insurance as in the person is covered not just the car. My husband thinks we can just ad the car to our policy and let them drive it and they will be covered. I don't think so, Otherwise why wouldn't everyone do that to save the money they charge when you add a teenager? They will be taking driver's ed which is supposed to help with insurance cost so that leads me to think even more that you need to add the teenager as someone to be insured and not just insure the car. can anyone help me out here as to what the proper thing to do is to make sure we will covered properly. And who's name should the car be registered in? Can you have a car registered in your name as a minor or not? thanks""

Building a BMW 318ti Rally Car
Story by eEuroparts.com
This covers what goes into turning a stock BMW 318ti into a full-blown stage rally car, evading the “but why” question entirely. For those of you looking to get into rally or simply to switch to a BMW, just like any car there’s a few common challenges with BMWs that’ll need sorting out and you should be aware of. We love the 318ti platform and its BMW partsfor a number of reasons, but this is about the build so let’s get started!
Racing Equipment – The Roll Cage
You may be surprised at how much work goes into creating a vehicle like this, only to dangle it in the face of ultimate destruction.  From the ground up, we completely stripped our car down to the bare metal. All little non-essential metal bits and pieces were removed with an angle grinder; we removed the paint, sound deadening, and any other BMW parts that would only be dead weight. Our metal fabricator has built all three of our cages (as well as a few cages and roll bars for other racers).
When building the parts of a cage, one thing to consider is just how small the interior of the car gets afterward. On this cage, the main hoop was moved back to the rear seat riser, the roof bars were bent just a little more to get in tighter to the roofline, we added a dash bar, front strut bars, a sill bar, and bent everything to be a little tighter to the shell.
Ultimately that allows for more room in the car and makes it safer by keeping the cage further away from us. After looking at how some of the higher-level cars did their aft supports, we decided to connect to the tops of the rear shock towers, which reduces some of the loading stress from the suspension system on the shell and transfers it through the cage. To protect our BMW suspension parts, the front shock towers were also double layered to keep the towers from stretching out and allowing the struts to punch through.
Interior Parts & Safety Gear
Once the cage and chassis are set, you need proper interior parts for racing. Seats and belts are some of the more expensive interior aftermarket parts. The price level in which you buy into depends on how many rallies you plan on running. Our first setup was OMP TRS-E seats, which were about $300-$350 each, and we had G-Force camlock 3” harnesses for around $150 each. That gear was fine to start out with.
While that gear worked well, the harnesses could be a bit tough to tighten up and the seats could start getting uncomfortable after ten hours. Granted, any seat could get uncomfortable after that. We now have OMP HTE-R seats, which are about $900, but are far more comfortable and the head bolsters give better protection in a side impact.
Intercoms are another important item in a rally car. Communication between the driver and co-driver is vital, as hearing a note incorrectly could cause a serious crash. We started with a Peltor FMT-120 Analog intercom. It’s a solid entry-level intercom and works well. Last year we switched to a Stylo DG-10 intercom after I accidentally broke the intercom connector on my side.
The DG-10 is a digital intercom which has a 12v input feed instead of an internal battery supply, active noise canceling, and stage and transit modes. The stage mode can adjust the preset volume levels, turn off the Bluetooth feature (don’t want to get phone calls during the stage), and can turn on auxiliary audio output for in-car cameras. The overall sound quality of the Stylo is much better.
Other safety gear needed in your rally car are fire extinguishers, three hazard triangles, a first aid kit, a fuel/fluid spill kit, and a belt cutter/window breaker. The rally rulebooks have general guidelines, but it’s important to think about where those items should go in your car. Put the safety-related items like the belt cutters, first aid kit, and at least one fire extinguisher within easy reach. Everything else (triangles, tools, spill kit) should be visible and easy to access when needed.  This is one of the reasons hatchbacks are so popular in rally, try yanking all this gear out of a trunk in the heat of the moment.
Yes, it will be mounted on a wheel prior to an actual rally.
Underbody Protection is a Must!
Protecting the car’s parts and systems is something we learned through trial and error. During our first events, we ran without underbody protection, leaving exposed critical car parts such as the engine oil pan, drive shaft and driveshaft flex joint, control arms and, of course, the brake lines. With this car we wanted to make protection a priority. We run a ¼” aluminum skid plate underneath to protect our BMW’s transmission and engine parts, and we used roll cage tubing for the attachment mounts. For the floor pans and rear trailing arms, we are using ¼” HDPE sheets which should help protect against punctures and wear on the floorboards and rear control arms.
Originally, we had mounted aluminum plates to protect our stock fuel tank. With this car we installed a fuel system inside the main compartment. This keeps the bottom of the fuel cell much higher, and we enclosed the entire fuel system with its own firebox to hopefully help contain any potential fires.
Engine Parts for Rallying
We are still running an M42 motor with mostly OEM and Aftermarket BMW engine parts. For rally, you do not need a crazy amount of power. Our car has just over 100hp to the wheels and we have podiumed at several events. The mods to our BMW engine and drivetrain parts that we found most useful were a lightweight flywheel (a JBR aluminum flywheel shaved 20 lb off the stock part), a higher ratio rear end (around 4:1 or slightly higher ratio are ideal for this setup), and the biggest performance improvement was from the standalone Link Fury ECU, which we also had professionally tuned.
Upgrading to a standalone ECU should be one of the first major performance parts upgrades to any car destined to race. It makes life easier having a good foundation to work with and (with a proper tune) can ultimately make even the stock engine parts last longer under hard racing environments. We have more usable power throughout the powerband now. We upgraded our radiator setup by installing a BMW aftermarket Mishimoto 6-cylinder radiator and Mishimoto expansion tank. eEuroparts.com actually put aBMW engine cooling system kittogether to perform the same upgrade on your E36. From initial testing, the setup seems to be working perfectly.
BMW Electrical Parts
One nightmare most people have with BMWs is the electrical. I swear, there is more wiring in a stock E36 than a Saturn V rocket. Not only is it full of wires, but everything is all balled up and looks like a big, colorful spaghetti-mess. When we decided to go with a new standalone ECU, we also decided it’d be a great time to completely strip out all the wiring in our new BMW 318ti rally car.
For a guy that used to sweat simple electrical work like making a three-wire harness for an old carburetor VW Golf, this was like getting thrown into the deep end of a pool. But if you take your time and break everything down, it’s only moderately painful.
We worked on the electrical in the engine harness, wiring in the fuel injectors, coil packs, various sensors, etc., as well as in the vehicle chassis harness. We’ve now made two full sets of wiring harnesses since starting rally. There is a lot that we learned while doing it, but taking your time is the most important thing.
Ergonomics is something that we started to appreciate more with each race. When you are cramped inside a rally car with a full roll cage and racing seats, it can get uncomfortable quickly if things are not placed in the car thoughtfully. We wanted to reduce the clutter for the switches and keep the tools and essential items placed in easy-to-reach areas. I learned how to work with fiberglass over the winter and formed new 318ti interior parts such as a new dashboard, door cards, and other interior panels. I wanted to form them to be better suited for our needs.
We spent time to ensure the seats, pedals and steering wheel were positioned properly. We replaced the BMW stock pedal setup with a pedal box and replaced the old steering wheel and switch panel setup with a detachable steering wheel and a wireless switch panel on the wheel. These interior parts upgrades can help reduce fatigue and make long days in the car more comfortable.
Rally Suspension System
Finally, arguably the most important part of rally — the suspension parts. While we knew how important a good suspension system was for handling, we did not know how much wear and tear cheaper suspension parts would put on the rest of the car’s parts during a rally event. Driving competitively, our suspension parts would barely last half of an event before the shocks completely blew out. At that point, the car handled like a waterbed on wheels.
Not only did our car become a handful to drive, it also allowed the car to bottom out more, damaging various parts in the underbody, as well as the rest of the suspension parts. For our second season, we tried the Bilstein HD shocks, which worked well for the events we ran, but we only got about two events out of them, so we continued looking. For the next upgrade on our BMW 318ti suspension, we got a set of fully integrated coil overs.
Though this performance upgrade was about $2,000, the difference was clear: the car handled much better. During the same events that really beat up the car with the old suspension system, we had far less damage with the new performance suspension. The car did not bottom out as much, and we also seemed to be wearing out our other BMW parts, such as the control arms and tie rods, at a much slower rate. This performance suspension lasted for about two full seasons. We finally blew out the dampers at the last race in our old car.
This season, we decided to go big and get a set of Reigers, which are quite a bit more expensive than our last suspension system; and also, the single most expensive part on the car. Along with the new dampers, we built custom trailing arms and a new rear sub frame out of roll cage tubing. These new suspension parts should be stronger than BMW’s stock set and reduce the failure points. Hopefully with this new suspension we will have better performance while reducing damage to other parts and systems of the car.
We’ve taken the lessons we learned from our last car and past seasons and have tried to apply them in our own way to build a better rally car. We hope our experience will help save you from finding something out the hard way!

Water on dwarf planet Ceres is driving an active surface

Water on dwarf planet Ceres is driving an active surface
A reconstructed perspective of Juling Crater, where a patch of water ice is slowly growing on the northern wall.
 (IAPS – INAF (Italy))
Growing patches of ice and minerals associated with liquid water reveal that the dwarf planet Ceres is still evolving.
Researchers studying the warmer region of Ceres — the largest object in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter — have noticed that a patch of ice has grown larger over time. In addition, a separate team found carbon-rich minerals on Ceres’ surface that do not last long . Together, the new discoveries suggest that water still has a powerful presence on the tiny world.
Using NASA’s Dawn spacecraft, the researchers studied the surface of the dwarf planet. The first team, led by Andrea Raponi, of the Italian National Institute for Astrophysics (INAF), found a growing patch of ice on Juling Crater, found in the midlatitudes. They suspect that water from the crater floor is condensing on the wall, causing a patch of ice to grow larger. [7 Strange Facts About Dwarf Planet Ceres]
The second team, led by Filippo Giacomo Carrozzo, also of INAF, surveyed the carbon-rich minerals on the dwarf planet and mapped several regions in detail, revealing changes in the soil that they suspect are tied to the carbonates. The water-rich, or hydrated, minerals suggest that water has risen to the surface and boiled off, leaving the carbonates behind to reveal its presence.
“The same process can be at work in the crater floor of Juling, providing a replenishment of water under the soil that sublimates and in part condenses on the cold wall,” Raponi told Space.com by email.
“The two works show that water is currently available on the surface of Ceres and produces geological and mineralogical changes on its surface,” he said.
Fingerprints of water
Ceres is classified as both a dwarf planet and an asteroid. When the Dawn spacecraft arrived at Ceres in 2015, it found a nearly featureless world with a rocky surface. A single mountain, Ahuna Mons, rose from the surface. Bright spots within craters were the only color variations on the otherwise dull, gray world.
As scientists probed the dwarf planet, they found hints that Ahuna Mons was not just a mountain, but a cryovolcano — also known as an ice volcano. Thick water ice may have risen to the surface in the past, flooding the plains with ice lava. Researchers found hints that other icy cryovolcanoes may have dotted Ceres in the past before slowly easing back into the landscape, their heights spreading outward across the landscape.
Eventually, Dawn revealed that the 130 bright patches contained sodium carbonates, salts that forms on Earth as water evaporates from a body of water like a lake, or in hot springs. It’s hard for water to stick around on Ceres’ surface. The lack of atmosphere on the tiny world means that sunlight causes the liquid to boil away immediately, leaving behind the rest of the minerals carried with it to the surface — such as carbonates.
“Carbonates are minerals that are very important because they can give us information about the presence of water on Ceres in the past and in the present,” Carrozzo told Space.com by email. 
Furthermore, they “are among the most interesting minerals researchers can observe on the planetary surface,” he said. “They are key minerals for understanding the Ceres environment because they are indicators of neutral to alkaline water.”
Carrozzo’s team mapped the entire surface of Ceres using Dawn’s Visible and Infrared Spectrometer, searching for carbonates. Their results revealed that some of the regions required different forms of the sodium carbonates than Dawn had identified previously. The new traces of sodium carbonates are more likely to carry water inside their structure than those found before, as their signals are a close match to minerals such as trona and thermonatrite.
“Trona is a sodium carbonate with two water molecules in its structure,” Carrozzo said. “When we observe it on a planetary surface, we are sure that water played a role in its formation.”
Dawn’s results revealed that most of the sites rich in sodium carbonate are found in the younger terrains along domes and mounds, as well as in the material thrown off by the impact that formed craters. While it is possible that the carbonates form in the heat of the impact, the researchers favor the idea that brines beneath the surface welled up to ooze through the crust. Such cryovolcanism requires that Ceres’ internal temperature stay warm enough to keep water from freezing completely, remaining instead as cryomagma that’s rich in sodium carbonates, Carrozzo said.
In addition to hinting at current activity on Ceres, the team’s results suggest that the dwarf planet may have formed farther out in the solar system than the asteroid belt, and previous discoveries of ammonia-rich clays on the dwarf planet support that idea, Carrozzo said.
“Sodium carbonate is one of the compounds found in the plumes of Enceladus, a moon of Saturn,” he added. “This finding reinforces the idea that Ceres formed in the outer solar system.”
Percolating water
While Carrozzo’s research focused on mapping the entire surface of Ceres, Raponi’s study targeted a specific crater. (Because they are members of the Dawn team, many of the researchers, including Carrozzo and Raponi, were authors on both papers.)
Though water ice has been found in shadowy craters, most of these craters lie near Ceres’ north pole. Juling Crater, however, is located in the dwarf planet’s midlatitudes, where the sun is higher overhead and shadows are harder to maintain. The northern wall of the 1.6-mile-deep (2.5 kilometers) crater is almost always cloaked in shadows. It is illuminated only by light reflected from the crater floor, Raponi said.
Juling Crater has a patch of ice on its northern wall. Using Dawn’s Visible and Infrared Mapping Spectrometer, Raponi and her colleagues were able to watch the ice grow from 3.6 square km to 5.5 square km (9.3 square miles to 14.2 square miles) over six months. 
There are two ways the visible ice chunk can grow, the researchers said. The first possibility is that the ice could already exist beneath the shallow exterior — previous studies have shown that water ice covers much of the dwarf planet’s subsurface — and then landslides along the side of the crater could slowly reveal the material, Raponi said. In that case, the itself ice wouldn’t be getting larger; rather, it would be uncovered slowly.
However, the team’s preferred solution involves water vapor. Geological formation similar to Earth’s rock glaciers cross the floor of the crater, with a large one at the base of the northern wall. The rock walls may be the source of the ice, as the crater wall traps water molecules coming from just beneath crater floor.
“We suggested liquid water percolating under the surface and then freezing to the surface of the cold wall when exposed,” Raponi said. 
The process would require a source of heat that is currently unknown, but he said other indications of water-rich minerals, such as those characterized by Carrozzo and his colleagues, suggest similar processes are occurring across Ceres.
“The increasing solar input, because of the changing season and decreasing distance of Ceres from the sun, could be the driving force of the sublimation of water from the subsurface of the floor that then, in part, condenses on the surface of the shadowed wall,” Raponi said.
He pointed out that Carrozzo’s research suggested a source of water-rich material rising from beneath the surface as the source of hydrated carbonates. A similar process could replenish the rock glacier on the crater floor, providing a source of water that helps to grow the icy region.
The new research reveals that Ceres isn’t an inert ball of rock but rather a constantly evolving icy world.
“In general, the two works show that water is currently available on the surface of Ceres, and produces geological and mineralogical changes on its surface,” he said.
Both papers were published yesterday (March 14) in the journal Science Advances, and can be seen here and here.
