Barbarian observes:
It turns out to have an unexpected liquid ocean below the ice on the surface. And that ocean continuously reworks the surface. This is why the Earth isn't pocked like the moon; the surface, over millions of years, gets moved around and the craters are eroded, subducted, and otherwise eradicated. The movement of the icy crust actually throws up mountains.
Here's a really close shot.
Notice the Mountains, which are very dark, because they are older than the area just beyond, which shows marks from movement of the crust, exposing fresh surface. Maybe you can figure out something to do with that. Worth a try. But you might want to do a reality check on the story, next time.
We know why you want to change the subject. It’s dawned on you that Pluto wouldn’t look as it does if it wasn’t millions of years old. And you’re trying to find a way to declare victory and retreat.
(Stipe declares victory and retreats)
What's funny is how little you appreciate the additional problems you raise for your notion that Pluto is millions of years old.
Here's an idea: Accurately recount OP and concede the fact that evolutionists expected a particular type of Pluto, but found the opposite.
Astronomers aren’t evolutionists, Stipe. No wonder you get confused. You might want to call them “gravitationists.”
As you just realized, the surprise was that a body the size of Pluto could have liquid water in an ocean under the crust without gravitational forcing by a large planet. The combination of ancient (dark and cratered) surface, with younger surface features is due to the action of that ocean. Would you like to learn how they know this?
Then perhaps a sensible discussion can emerge.
I have no illusions that you can manage a sensible discussion. You’re just playing Simplicio to my Sagredo here.
I expect you’ll continue spouting nonsense.
That's what makes you so useful in illuminating the issue.
