Description
My interpretation of Haumea seen from one of it’s moons. It is known that Haumea has a dark red spot on it’s surface. I liked the theory of it being an impact crater.Oh and Happy Holidays everyone!

It looks a bit like a nipple ... but you can expect then to say that on a NASA website. Interesting guess about the crater, though. I wouldn't have guessed such an angular rock surface, which looks more like mass wastage, but after you've seen 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko, it isn't safe to make safe bets.

A lot of craters look like nipples.

This is Darin Ragozzine, an expert on Haumea. This is an extremely good piece of art. I'll probably be using it for my scientific presentations on Haumea, thanks to your generous sharing with the CC license!

It's a gorgeous piece, and I always love seeing dwarf planets get some love, but the irregularity has me a bit confused, given that, despite its ellipsoidal shape, it's in hydrostatic equilibrium. Is that just supposed to be really heavy cratering?
Still, I love this. It's like something from the space books I would read as a kid.

Just beautiful... I'm always amazed that people can do art like this.

Holy cow, your alien landscapes are so amazing. I love the level of detail you put in each piece! This definitely looks more like an oil painting than a digital painting. I'm just floored.

Most of the time when I see space art it's just a drawing of a circular planet with an atmosphere between it and the planet we're seeing. however, in this case, the digital art reminds me of 60' photorealism and drawings like that. the lack of an atmosphere with a really black space and a few starts really does add to the feeling of the art piece. and then the planet's weird eggplant like shape along with the jaggies and craters is truly the centerpiece of this artwork. However what I like the most about it was the moon and all the rotations on the right side. along with excellent shadows, this is one of my favorite space based pieces peroid. you got a like, favorite and follow sir, a like favorite, and follow
