I fetched the raw images from HST of pluto, taken in 1994. There is a set taken through a 342 nm filter and some taken through 550 nm. I did a rough color combination, after overlaying Pluto and Charon correctly (Charon moved noticeably in its orbit during the time between pictures).

Nicely done, one can see the colour difference between the two. I believe there are also some raws for Xena and Gabrielle too. Worth trying, perhaps? -------------------- |

Was this done using the original FITS format images?

This was done with the 16-bit FITS images. Color coding is not accurate thought. I just put the 342 nm image into the blue plane, and the 550 image into the red and green planes.
