Feel free to comment with your thought on this.  And this video shows a brief compilation of some of the bright spots and information on the flight over that section.

Do you agree with the salt and ice theory or do you still think it might be something else?  Just because they said that is the simplest theory does not mean it is the accurate one.  This particular story got quite a buzz in 2015 so I’d expect to hear more about these spots.

Here is more about the spots from wikipedia:

Several bright surface features (also known as faculae) were discovered on the dwarf planet Ceres by the Dawn spacecraft in 2015.

The brightest cluster of spots (“Spot 5”) is located in an 80-kilometer (50 mi) crater called Occator.^[1][2] The largest and brightest component of the cluster is in the center of the crater, with dimmer spots located towards this crater’s eastern rim. Early in the orbital phase of the Dawn mission, the high albedo of these spots was speculated to be due to some kind of outgassing,^[3] and subsequent closer images helped scientists determine that it is material with a high level of reflection, and suggested ice and salt as possibilities.^[4] These bright features have an albedo of about 40%, four times brighter than the average of Ceres’s surface

We hope you enjoy the video!
