Vesta asteroid, artwork
Vesta asteroid. Computer artwork of the asteroid Vesta (4 Vesta), based on Hubble Space Telescope (HST) images. The asteroids south pole (lower centre) has been flattened, suggesting that it has experienced a major impact with another object in the past. Vesta orbits the Sun between the orbits of Mars & Jupiter at an average distance of 353 million kilometres (2.36 times the radius of Earths orbit). It is the second largest asteroid, having a diameter of about 538 kilometres. Under favourable conditions, it is the only asteroid visible to the naked eye

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork showcases the enigmatic Vesta asteroid, a celestial body that has left scientists in awe. Based on images captured by the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), this computer-generated illustration brings to life the unique features of Vesta. The most striking aspect is its flattened south pole, hinting at a colossal impact with another object in its distant past. Vesta gracefully orbits the Sun between Mars and Jupiter, residing at an average distance of 353 million kilometers from our star. With a diameter of approximately 538 kilometers, it proudly claims the title of being the second largest asteroid known to humanity. Interestingly, under optimal conditions, Vesta can even be observed with just our naked eyes – making it a rare spectacle among asteroids. The intricate details portrayed in this artwork allow us to explore Vesta's rugged surface marked by numerous craters and distinctive geological formations. Its partially shadowed regions add depth and mystery to this cosmic portrait as we marvel at its beauty against a backdrop of twinkling stars. As we delve into cosmology and unravel the secrets of our solar system, photographs like these provide invaluable insights into celestial bodies that are millions of miles away. This stunning print from Science Photo Library serves as both an artistic masterpiece and an educational tool for those fascinated by space exploration and astronomy alike.
