    Philae status report: “Time is running out” | Rosetta - ESA's comet chaser
    http://blogs.esa.int/rosetta/2016/01/08/philae-status-report-time-is-running-out/

    Rosetta’s lander Philae has remained silent since 9 July 2015. With every passing day, Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko
    is getting further and further away from the Sun, and as such, temperatures are falling on the comet's surface. Things
    are getting critical for Philae: conditions are predicted to be “lander-hostile” – too cold – by the end of January.

    But the lander team are going to try another method to trigger a reponse from Philae: on 10 January they will send
    a command, via Rosetta, to attempt to make Philae’s momentum wheel switch on.

    "Time is running out, so we want to explore all possibilities," says Stephan Ulamec, Philae lander manager at DLR.

    ‘X’ Marks a Curious Corner on Pluto’s Icy Plains
    https://www.nasa.gov/feature/x-marks-a-curious-corner-on-pluto-s-icy-plains

    Mission scientists believe the pattern of the cells stems from the slow thermal convection of the nitrogen-dominated ices that fill Sputnik Planum. A reservoir that’s likely several miles or kilometers deep in some places, the solid nitrogen is warmed at depth by Pluto’s modest internal heat, becomes buoyant and rises up in great blobs, and then cools off and sinks again to renew the cycle.

    “This part of Pluto is acting like a lava lamp,” said William McKinnon, deputy lead of the New Horizons Geology, Geophysics and Imaging team, from Washington University in St. Louis, “if you can imagine a lava lamp as wide as, and even deeper than, the Hudson Bay.”

    Particles ‘Go with the Flow’ on Pluto’s Surface
    http://www.nasa.gov/feature/particles-go-with-the-flow-on-pluto-s-surface

    Among the features scientists find particularly interesting are the bright methane ices that condensed on many crater rims; the collection of dark red tholins (small soot-like particles generated from reactions involving methane and nitrogen in the atmosphere) in low areas, like the bottoms of craters; and the layering on the faces of steep cliffs and on crater walls.

    In areas where the reddish material is thickest and the surface appears smooth, the material seems to have flowed into some channels and craters. Scientists say tholin deposits of that thickness aren’t usually mobile on large scales, suggesting that they might be riding along with ice flowing underneath, or being blown around by Pluto’s winds.

    Does Icy Pluto Have a Hidden Ocean? New Horizons Offers New Clues | Science | Smithsonian
    http://www.smithsonianmag.com/...-have-hidden-ocean-new-horizons-offers-new-clues-180957737/?&no-ist

    In addition to wonders like soaring mountains, ice volcanoes and a giant heart-shaped basin, images beamed back by the probe revealed a surface marred by a network of fissures and a notably spherical shape.

    For some scientists, those last two discoveries are hints that something even wilder may be hidden inside the tiny world, because they are the first direct clues that Pluto could host a subsurface ocean beneath its thick, icy crust. If confirmed, an ocean on Pluto would have profound implications, because it would increase the likelihood that other icy bodies could host liquid water—and possibly life.

    "The fact that even cold, distant Pluto could have a subsurface ocean means that there are potential habitats even in apparently unpromising locations," says Francis Nimmo, a New Horizons scientist based at the University of California, Santa Cruz.

    These cracks hint at subsurface seas:

    XCHAOS: podle 4.6 Ceres Science Overview má High Altitude Mapping Orbit (HAMO) beta úhel 40° a Low Altitude Mapping Orbit (LAMO, začne v prosinci 2016) bude mít 65°.

    Beta úhel je úhel mezi orbitální rovinou a vektorem Slunce-Ceres. Ceres má sklon osy kolem 4°, takže pokud to chápu dobře, nepodívá se Dawn dál než 69° od rovníku.
