P-34690 Field of View : 1,000 km. or 600 miles This photograph of Neptune's moon Triton was acquired by Voyager 2. Triton's limb cuts obliquely accross the middle of the image. Three irregular dark areas, surrounded by brighter material, dominate the image. Low-lying material with intermediate albedo occupies the central area, anf fresh craters occur along the right margin. sub-parallel alignment of linear patches of dark material shown in the lower and left part of the image suggests that the patches are structurally controlled.
