BuzzFeed have gotten their hands on how the NH team plans to name features on both Pluto and Charon: http://www.buzzfeed.com/alexkasprak/the-vader-crater
The names give some clues for how the science team is interpreting things: you find things named fossa, vallis, cavus, rupes, dorsa and linea - all on Pluto. EDIT: The maps on the mission website: Pluto Sputnik plain and surroundings Charon This post has been edited by Habukaz: Dec 20 2015, 09:11 PM -------------------- |

I recently got a new computer. With it, I have constructed the highest resolution color map of Pluto. I had to divide it into 4 sections because Flickr wouldn't accept the 24K beast as one or even two pieces. The map can be seen in this album.

Flickr allows images up to 200MB but size in pixels should not be limited so as long it's JPEG with such compression that it's smaller than 200MB, it should be fine. My largest image on Flickr has size 24 000 × 20 300. -------------------- |
