The main image on each object page uses the original-resolution Wikimedia file. The site header and Pluto-system hierarchy use smaller derivatives to keep navigation lightweight. For Styx, the same source file is used for both because the original is already small.

The interactive 3D view is provided by NASA/JPL through NASA Eyes on the Solar System.
