Ice planet many times the earth's mass with a surface temperature potentially under 70K. There are several extrasolar ice planet candidates, including OGLE-2005-BLG-390Lb, OGLE-2013-BLG-0341L b and MOA-2007-BLG-192Lb. Ice planet An ice planet is a theoretical type of exoplanet with an icy surface of volatiles such as water, ammonia, and methane. Ice planets consist of a global cryosphere. They are bigger versions of the small icy worlds of the Solar System, which includes the moons Europa, Enceladus, and Triton, the dwarf planets Pluto and Eris, and many other small Solar System bodies such as comets. Ice planets usually appear nearly white with geometric
Pioneer Terra of a probe and orbiter to Venus. Pioneer Terra Pioneer Terra is a region on the dwarf planet Pluto, north of Tombaugh Regio and east of Voyager Terra. It was discovered by the "New Horizons" spacecraft on 14 July 2015. It is named for the "Pioneer" program, which included "Pioneer 10" and "Pioneer 11", the first spacecraft to cross the asteroid belt and explore Jupiter and Saturn, as well as the first to explore the outer solar system; "Pioneer 6, 7, 8, and 9", which formed an "interplanetary weather network"; "Pioneer 1" through "5", which explored the Moon in various
