This topic will contain images & discussion of same as they arrive during the extended download period. Similar threads will be opened in coming months as required as acquired data & discussion proceeds.
-------------------- A few will take this knowledge and use this power of a dream realized as a force for change, an impetus for further discovery to make less ancient dreams real.

Speaking of ices, glaciers, flow patterns etc., a lot of examples of how terrestrial glaciers can appear can be seen in a big mosaic I did a few years ago of southern Greenland from Landsat 7 images: http://www.planetary.org/blogs/guest-blogs...nd-jonsson.html
There appear to be some superficial similarities but it must be kept in mind that the resolution of the Pluto images is much lower (the resolution of the Landsat mosaic is ~30 m/pixel). |
