Photos of Pluto show the complex geology of the dwarf planet

Scientists are preparing to release a new batch of images taken by the station New Horizons near Pluto. Here is just one of the photos that amaze our imagination. On it in an enlarged image of the view of Pluto, where the composition and structure of the surface of the planet are seen in the foreground.

Scientists believe that the bright area in the “heart” of Pluto is ice. Two bluish-white petals that extend to the southwest and northeast of the heart-shaped region may represent “exotic ice". A colorful view of Pluto - a combination of four images obtained from the New Horizons station using the LORRI tool. The pictures were taken when the New Horizons were 280,000 miles away from Pluto.

New horizons show psychedelic Pluto and its companion Charon. The scientists' pictures show Pluto and Charon blinded with differences in the colors of their surfaces. The pictures show that the second mountain chain rises from the heart of Pluto.
