The diameter of the largest crater is 16 kilometers.
NASA scientists found accumulations of water ice. This resource is contained in the shaded sections of the dwarf planet Ceres.
NASA scientists have developed a map of the planet Ceres, there will be marked locations of deposits of water ice.
With the help of space station Dawn now there is a thorough study of the planet, especially the Northern hemisphere, this issue led by Norbert Schörghofer of the state of Hawaii.
Using the latest technology, the planet was scanned and was found a shaded area, they are then hiding the water ice. Contains water ice in the shadowed craters, which make up 1% of the total surface of the hemisphere.
Despite the tiny size of the planet, the largest of the craters has a diameter of 16 kilometers. Water gets into these craters in midget doses, literally molecule by molecule, however, at the moment of water ice on Ceres has accumulated enough.
