NASA does not cease to surprise us photographs of one of the most distant solar system globes made by the probe New Horizons. These are the latest in high definition. Today, we also get to view more images of the moons of Pluto.

– face Pluto can confidently compete with those pokazywanymi us by any other globe in the solar system, for example. Mars – excited Alan Stern, chief scientist of the mission.

The images are razor sharp and more pronounced than Earth’s clearest panoramas photographed with the best visibility. Not surprisingly, Pluto has a very thin atmosphere, which actually does not distract sunlight.

This thin atmosphere – composed, among others, of nitrogen, methane and carbon dioxide – indeed it amazes scientists from NASA, because on the surface of Pluto, they recognized the dark sand dunes. They are taking place now in my head, what mechanism could be formed – it’s hard to with so miserable, rarefied atmosphere of the planet dwarf hulały strong winds.

Photographs made public by NASA show the landscape of the equatorial region of Pluto – amazingly diverse. The largest panorama shows the area with a diameter of 1.8 thousand. km. It shows the white “heart”, which the Americans called the Plain of Sputnik, and darker, cavernous craters region called the Cthulhu (interested in the story behind the name, refer to the famous short story “The Call of Cthulhu” HP Lovecraft).

Look at the skyline of Pluto in large format.

Scientists say that the region marked the craters must be the oldest surface of Pluto, which comes from the youthful period of the solar system (its birth scholars date back to more than 4.5 billion years ago). On the other hand smoother – ice is thought – fragments must be a lot younger.

In addition to craters and plains in the subsequent close-ups can be seen above – perhaps mostly ice – and valleys, probably carved by a matter flowing on the surface Pluto.

Published by NASA’s pictures of the surface of Pluto were taken by the probe New Horizons on 14 July 2015. from a distance of 80 thousand. km. The smallest objects visible to them have a diameter of 800 m.

NASA also made public the new – high resolution – a photograph Charon, the largest moon of Pluto, New Horizons probe which is made from a distance of 470 thousand. km (the smallest structures visible on the surface of the moon have a diameter of 4.6 km.)

Americans today also announced the publication of further images of the dwarf planet’s natural satellites.

Among the newly published images is a photograph Pluto’s atmosphere highlighted by the sun, which New Horizons made several hours after passing the dwarf planet at a distance of 770 thousand. km.

Today the probe is already 69 million kilometers beyond Pluto and 5 billion km from Earth. Heading towards another ice bodies in orbit about the Sun in the so-called. Kuiper Belt.

                                 Photo made on Pluto GPR unexpectedly revealed another former German train with gold. President Walbrzych already convened a competition to build the rocket, which will select a conservator to examine the findings.

                                 Under our texts about Pluto appeared alarming number of comments that called for the offenses contained content antykosmiczne, racist and xenophobic. We do not want them to show. We reject the violation of the dignity of other people and aliens on our forum. Therefore, we decided that we exclude the possibility of commenting under our texts about the cosmos. We will also report to the prosecutor cases of incitement to hatred on antykosmicznym, racial and religious.

                                 Since reading “World Planet” Dworak and Rudnicki, I dreamed to see Pluto and Charon.
    Did not disappoint.
