What a wonderful experiment! I have nothing of any great profundity to say, except that some of your results are very reminiscent of the Voyager Mountains on Iapetus.
Yes Ian R, it reminds the white characteristics over Iapetus surface. Thanks,

Somebody sop him! He's doing science!

This is too cool. Very much enjoy such visual simulations.
Many Thanks..

Excellent stuff, Daniele! If you've still got your experiment tray ready to go, could you try making a crater with an extremely shallow angle impact?
Ok, tonight I try a normal angle impact..

and a low angle impact (it created a crater oblong):

I love to see an experiment, and the cartoon scenarios are also a great basis for discussion. Scenarios b and c look good to me for the various white spots. I would just add that in scenario b the original big impact would likely have exposed fresh ice, subsequently re-covered with dirt before the recent smaller impact event. (You don't need to rely on the coincidence that the large impact narrowly missed going deep enough, allowing the smaller one to finish the job.)
You have reason, was better show exposed fresh ice, subsequently re-covered with dirt.. at that moment I wanted to show craters that had gone more 'in depth, but there are many other possible scenarios for bright spot 5..
Many Thanks

That is incredibly cool Daniele, reminiscent of some of Emily's montages. Can I make 2 small suggestions however?
1) The Chariklo image is the only non-photograph, its an artist's conception. Perhaps identify it as such
2) An image of Proteus, to scale, will remind viewers that the transition from 'round' to 'potato' shaped is not a totally predictable one
P
Thanks "antipod",
1. Chariklo is as I have imagined (I have some modified a umbriel moon).
2. It was not a case. I am very fascinated from the small spherical bodies like Mimas or Miranda. I wanted to include just the spherical and small planetary bodies, for paragone at Ceres; for this reason I haven't put irregular bodies like Proteo moon, or Pallas and Iperione. I have included Vesta, a planetary body more 'bigger than others but still uneven, and the others asteroids visited from a Space probes.
One day I try to delete Vesta and I add Proteus moon.. Your advice are welcome, even others, Many Thanks;
in this collage you can see Ceres compared with Tethis, DIone, Ariel, Umbriel:

To my work I use just simply "paint PC program"; I posted them on my exstrasolar planets website since 2012. They have been modified and updated several times over the years, with new images, new data, new dimensions. I am very precise. I do it for passion only.. .
This is a big work that I did some years ago: 126 corp of the Solar system compared 27,8 km/pixel (also the recent ceres RC3 obviously)
![](http://mondialieni.altervista.org/All_planet_Daniele_Bianchino_pianeti_asteroidi_comete_ceres_cerere_lune_moon_solar_system_sistema_solare_nano_dwarf_.jpg)
I have another work since 2011, 32 exstrasolar system (850 km / pixel), but I know that can't talk about exstrasolar planets in this Forum;
Sorry for my English,
Many THanks,
Daniele
