Dawn Nears Ceres Ahead of NASA Mission to Dwarf Planet

Subscribe

NASA’s Dawn spacecraft will arrive on the dwarf planet Ceres in our solar system’s asteroid belt on March 6. It will be the first spacecraft to explore a dwarf planet. 

Ceres captured our attention last week as Dawn sent home images of strange bright lights on its surface.  Ceres is the largest body in the asteroid belt between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.
