NGC 7331



LBN777

A fast moving dust storm is seen over Utopia and is blowing across the north polar cap. Judging from its color, it probably originated from the plains of Elysium further to the south. It is evident in the above February 1 image and trails off as a thinner dust stream onward to the other side of the pole. Image by John Nassr http://stardustobservatory.org
