Geology

Today's Astronomy Picture of the Day shows some of the features discovered by the New Horizons vehicle as it begins its flyby past Pluto. Unfortunately due to that pesky orbital mechanics, we won't be seeing this face again (but what wonders will be found on the face presenting itself to New Horizons on closest approach?).

"Mouseover" the image to have some explanatory text appear.
