Charon Flyover from New Horizons

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

Imagine flying over Charon, Pluto's largest moon. The New Horizons spacecraft did just that in July 2015, capturing images that allowed for a digital reconstruction of much of its surface. This visualization, based on that data, shows Charon's diverse terrain. Vertical heights and colors of surface features have been digitally enhanced to highlight details.
