High Res Pluto

That's just awesome. It looks like a frozen sea. I would have figured being so close to the oort cloud that it would have more meteor impacts, I guess that far out even the 'cloud' isn't very dense.

Thanks for posting!

Very cool pictures Fredski.

It does look a bit like water erosion that was lapping at the shores or where the desert meets mountains.

Thank you!

Can we call it a planet again? Or would that mean a whole bunch of scientists and their theories were wrong? These pictures hardly give the sense of a random piece of space junk that happened to get caught in the sun's gravitational field.

Last year this is what Pluto (and Charon) looked like. I would say we have made some outstanding progress in resolution!

finally took the lens cap off
