Pluto and Triton are icy twins of the outer Solar System, 'born' in the same region but 'raised' under very different circumstances. This book provides a comprehensive review of the similarities and differences between various features of Pluto and Triton for a big-picture view of how these planetary bodies may be connected. In addition, the book reviews the far too limited spacecraft exploration that has been devoted to both of these planetary bodies and outlines the outstanding questions that future missions will need to answer. This book is suitable for researchers and graduate students alike in planetary science. It is not a course text but could be used for planetary science courses focused on the outer solar system.
