There Are Mysterious Objects as Tall as Skyscrapers on Pluto. Now Scientists Know Why!
Solar Snowfall
One image of Pluto revealed a strange surface pattern that when examined more closely revealed it could possibly be snowing on the planet. Now, in order for snow to occur, you don’t just need frigid temperatures. A planet needs to have an atmosphere that can produce snow clouds or a volcanic eruption must occur that can send frozen material high enough into the air.
With Pluto’s thin nitrogen-based atmosphere, snow could be a possibility.
