Pluto in Enhanced Color
Pluto is more colorful than we can see with the unaided eye. The New Horizons spacecraft took this enhanced color image during its July flyby. Combining color data and images reveals the dwarf planet's unexpectedly young surface. This view is useful for distinguishing surface regions of differing chemical composition.
