Thanks to New Horizons' stereo images, we can get a look at the mountains of Pluto in 3D. Now I just need to find my 3D glasses...
[Ed. Addition] Also check out this NASA.gov video Animated Flyover of Pluto's Icy Mountain and Plains:
This simulated flyover of Pluto's Norgay Montes (Norgay Mountains) and Sputnik Planum (Sputnik Plain) was created from New Horizons closest-approach images. Norgay Montes have been informally named for Tenzing Norgay, one of the first two humans to reach the summit of Mount Everest. Sputnik Planum is informally named for Earth's first artificial satellite. The images were acquired by the Long Range Reconnaissance Imager (LORRI) on July 14 from a distance of 48,000 miles (77,000 kilometers). Features as small as a half-mile (1 kilometer) across are visible. Credit: NASA/JHUAPL/SWRI
Where do you go to find images and information on the New Horizons mission?

I would love that picture. I hope they have something like that planned. I have actually been looking a lot lately at pictures of the size of the sun viewed from other planets. Here's some other pages I've found:
