Scientists are puzzled by mysterious "haloes" on Pluto

OH,,,, We aren't done with Pluto's Mysteries,,,,,, No we're NOT!

The discovery of strange halo-like craters on Pluto has raised a new mystery about how the odd scars formed on the icy world.

Pluto's "halo" craters are clearly visible in a new image from NASA's New Horizons spacecraft, which made the first-ever flyby of the dwarf planet in July 2015. In the image, a black-and-white view reveals dozens of ringed craters (NASA describes these formations as "haloed") strewn across the dark landscape of Vega Terra, a region in the far western reaches of the hemisphere photographed by New Horizons during its flyby. The craters have bright walls and rims, making them stand out from their darker surroundings.
While the haloed craters are eye-catching, what has really stumped scientists is what these features are made of.

Yes, what are these craters made of?

A glimpse at the craters provided by New Horizons' Ralph/Linear Etalon Imaging Spectral Array revealed a surprising connection between the bright halo features and the distribution of methane ice, NASA officials explained in an image description. This methane ice around the craters shows up as a deep purple in an inset view included in the new image. The crater floors and in-between regions, meanwhile, are colored blue to indicate water ice.

"Exactly why the bright methane ice settles on these crater rims and walls is a mystery; also puzzling is why this same effect doesn't occur broadly across Pluto," NASA officials wrote in the image description.

That's right My Friends,,,,,,,, Methane!!!! So, Get it through your Thick Skulls,,,, There Scientist!
Those little one or two cell creatures living in the Ice in those Craters Are Passing Gas,,,,,, Yes,,,,,,,, FARTING!!!! OMG!!!! Global Warming!!!!! For The Love Of All things On Pluto,,,,, Call Al Gore!!!!!!!
