Summary
| Description |
Is this the side of a famed Dalmatian dog, or the surface of Mars? It’s the latter! These dark spots are the result of sublimation, when ice under the surface gets heated and turns directly into a gas. This exposes darker material that look like dark spots. Over time, even these will fade, but newer spots will appear. The ice here is made of carbon dioxide. Image is less than 5 km (3 mi) across and is 250 km (156 mi) above the surface.
