Worth remembering that New Horizons crosses the orbit of Uranus today!
Just a couple of billions kms to go! http://twitter.com/newhorizons2015/ We're crossing Uranus's orbit TOMORROW -- on now toward Neptune's! about 16 hours ago via web |

Early today we cracked the Voyager 1 distance record to Pluto. When it comes to closest, we own it now, and get closer every day.

I proofed the release and images but not their captions. Sigh. |
