PASADENA, Calif., Aug. 22 (UPI) -- U.S. astronomers say a dwarf planet dubbed Snow White is an icy world covered in water ice that once flowed from ancient, slush-producing volcanoes.
Scientists at the California Institute of Technology say the red-tinged dwarf planet, 2007 OR10, may be covered in a thin layer of methane, the last remnant of an atmosphere slowly being dissipated into space.
