Mountains:
* Norgay Montes and Hillary Montes: These towering mountains, named after the famous mountaineers, are believed to be composed of water ice.
* Tartarus Dorsa: A chain of ridges extending for hundreds of kilometers, possibly formed by tectonic forces.
* Tenzing Montes: Another mountain range named after a famous mountaineer, Tenzing Norgay.
Plains:
* Sputnik Planitia: A vast, heart-shaped plain of nitrogen ice, which is likely a large impact basin.
* Virgil Fossa: A long, narrow depression that may be a canyon.
* Krun Macula: A large, dark region thought to be composed of tholins, complex organic molecules.
Other features:
* Tombaugh Regio: A large, bright region named after Clyde Tombaugh, the discoverer of Pluto. It includes Sputnik Planitia.
* Cthulhu Macula: A dark, vast region, likely composed of tholins, similar to Krun Macula.
* Hydra and Charon: Pluto has five moons, with Charon being the largest. Both are also covered in interesting landforms.
Additional points:
* Pluto's surface is incredibly varied: It exhibits a mixture of plains, mountains, craters, and other features.
* Composition: The surface of Pluto is primarily composed of nitrogen, methane, and carbon monoxide ices, mixed with rocks.
* Evidence of past geological activity: The presence of mountains and plains suggests that Pluto has experienced tectonic activity and cryovolcanism (volcanism with ice instead of magma).
The exploration of Pluto is ongoing: New discoveries are being made all the time, so this list may change as we learn more about this distant world.
