Washington, Feb 26 : There's not one, but two bright spots on dwarf planet Ceres, scientists have found.

NASA 's Dawn spacecraft got closer to being captured into orbit around the object, and the latest images, taken nearly 29,000 miles (46,000 kilometers) from Ceres, reveal that a bright spot that stands out in previous images lies close to yet another bright area.

Chris Russell, principal investigator for the Dawn mission said that the Ceres' bright spot can now be seen to have a companion of lesser brightness, but apparently in the same basin. This may be pointing to a volcano-like origin of the spots, but they would have to wait for better resolution before making such geologic interpretations.
