This thread is for discussion of NH Pluto surface observations received after 10 Oct 2015.
-------------------- 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.

Well, I wouldn't suggest water as a first possibility. There's a lot of factors that would make that scenario relatively unlikely but you can't rule it out at 0% chance.

And what would those factors be? IIRC ammonia-water volcanism created a lot of landforms on the more active of Uranian moons. Pluto's crust is mostly water ice and an impact or volcanic activity can easily evaporate/melt it. |
