2 November 2024 -The processing creates images that would approximate the colors that the human eye would perceive, bringing them closer to “true color” than the images released near the encounter. This image was taken as New Horizons zipped toward Pluto and its moons on July 14, 2015, from a range of 22,025 miles (35,445) kilometers. 15 April 2020 -This natural-color image of Pluto results from refined calibration of data gathered by New Horizons' color Multispectral Visible Imaging Camera (MVIC).
Four images from NASA's New Horizons were combined with color data from the Ralph instrument to create this global view of Pluto. (The lower right edge of Pluto in this view currently lacks high-resolution color coverage.) 29 June 2016 -Four images from New Horizons’ Long Range Reconnaissance Imager (LORRI) were combined with color data from the Ralph instrument to create this global view of Pluto. (The lower right edge of Pluto in this view currently lacks high-resolution color coverage.) 5 August 2018 -This is a true color image of Pluto.
... Jesus. Loading that picture gave me dialup flashbacks.
... It's 54,5 MB at 8000 x 8000 resolution. And lots of redditor are requesting it from that poor poor pluto.jhuapl.edu server · If a thousand redditors clicked on it' that's 50 GB of upload! ...
I can tell yours is the real one because it took me like 45 seconds to load the damn thing. 9 October 2019 -The images were then combined with color data acquired by another instrument, creating a global image of Pluto. The images were taken when the spacecraft was 450,000 kilometers (280,000 miles) away, but they show features as small as 2.2 km (1.4 miles) small.
Combining the images offers twice the resolution of a single image. However, keeping in mind what Pluto’s real colors look like, there’s no reason we can’t appreciate the blue-red image as well. 1 May 2025 -Pluto nearly fills the frame in this image from NASA's New Horizons spacecraft.
