PLUTO CHANGE COLOR


NASA scientists say Pluto is small and situated at the very end of our solar system is now getting red.


The pictures taken by the Hubble Space Telescope shows that planets were 20% more red than before.
Experts believe the phenomenon is caused by changes to the existing ice surface when the planet Pluto is entering a new phase of the orbit for 248 years.
These new pictures show the more nitrogen the frozen north and the more shine in the dark in the south.
"These changes are likely a result of the melting of polar ice is exposed to sunlight at the poles while others froze," the statement Space Telescope Science Institute for NASA.
But some experts expressed surprise astromoni with that change.
"A little surprising to see these changes happen so big and so fast," said Marc Buie, of the Southwest Research Institute. "This has never happened before."
In 2006, astronomers revoked Pluto's status as a planet full of a small planet.
The planet is located very far away and far smaller than the eight other planets in our solar system is indeed much smaller than a few months there in space.
But this red color is not expected to affect the temperature in pluti; although there was a reddish color Pluti surface temperature is very cold at the point-233C. [Bbc / ais]
