Voyager 2 dives on Triton flyby at Neptune moon
Voyager 2 completed a dramatic Neptune flyby and closed in on Triton, delivering striking images of a strange, craterless landscape with methane ice glaciers. The craft skimmed Neptune’s polar region at about 61 150 mph, four hours from Earth due to light delay, while scientists note changing terrain and few craters.
