Vesta is one of the largest asteroids in the asteroid belt, with a diameter of about 525 kilometers. It is considered a protoplanet because it retains many features that can provide insight into the early solar system's formation and evolution. Vesta’s surface is marked by craters and a unique basaltic composition, indicating volcanic activity, which sets it apart from many other small bodies in the asteroid belt.
