[QUOTE="Dale00, post: 2769460, member: 688"] Amazing surface features with major mountains. I will be interested to learn the elevations. The surface of Pluto is certainly different than my false preconception of a dark featureless forsaken asteroid. Major congratulations to all the scientists, engineers and support people who played a role in achieving this great success. And more discoveries to come. As a believer, I am in awe of the creator's creation and the power he has given man to explore and appreciate it. A picky side note: I hope they are circumspect in naming the surface features. I've heard some sci-fi names mentioned. These are not necessarily a good choice that will stand the test of time. Case in point: Holmes Peak adjacent to Tulsa. Named for Sherlock Holmes (?) because there was an influential group of Sherlock Holmes fans in Tulsa at one point in time. [/QUOTE]
