Charon: Pluto's Fascinating Moon Updates from the New Horizons Mission

Charon is Pluto's large companion, and in the summer of 2015 it went from a distant point of light
to a full-fledged world in human understanding. Join us as we discuss the interesting fractured
geology of Charon. Dr. Ross Beyer, member of the New Horizons team and a Research Scientist at
the SETI Institute will take you on a tour of the canyons, faults, craters, smooth plains, enigmatic
mountains, and all manner of terrains that New Horizons observed as it flew through the Pluto
system.

Speaker: Dr. Ross Beyer, SETI
