The Dawn spacecraft was launched in 2007 to explore and investigate two of the largest asteroids in the asteroid belt.

It was the first ever spacecraft to go into orbit around 2 separate extraterrestrial bodies.

In this video, we will find out everything Dawn saw and discovered around the asteroids Vista and series.

Vista is the only remaining rocky protoplanet in our solar system that never finished forming.

The two collisions that carved out the South Pole of Vista flung a massive amount of ejector into space.

5% of meteorites that end up on Earth come from Vester , known as Howardite Ukrite Diogenite meteorites.

Vista is thought to be very dry, with little to no volatiles found in its crust.

Dawn also made some unexpected discoveries on Vista 's surface.

Dawn spent two years in transit between the asteroid belt and the Ceres.

It was finally able to escape Vista 's gravity and then begin its journey towards Ceres.
