After the New Horizons visit, the number of hypotheses regarding Pluto and Charon skyrocketed. That is because the images that the New Horizons probe captured are of very high quality, which allows for in-depth studying of their surfaces, which tells us a lot about them. Through that and through other known facts I piece together a fairly detailed long-scale timeline of Pluto and Charon.
