The dwarf planet Ceres possesses rare attributes as NASA's Dawn spacecraft discovered ice volcanoes on its surface.
Dawn recently shared images of Ceres from an altitude of 915 miles showing the spots to be a cluster on the dwarf planet's landscape.
Dawn captured its most detailed ever photo of the dwarf planet from 3,200 miles on May 23.
The spacecraft captured its closest ever image of the planet's surface where the spots are located.
Scientists think ice on the dwarf planet is reflecting sunlight.
Dawn is set to enter into an orbit around dwarf planet Ceres on March 6.
