Thursdays @Pluto: Charon in living color.

Yes, it's Thursday, time to see what marvels the New Horizons team has released upon us today. Their focus this week is Pluto's moon Charon, and once again they don't disappoint. I recommend browsing all the recent Charon images at the Science Gallery because there are several other images, such as high-resolution color details, worth viewing too. But as always I'm a sucker for that global color mosaic:
