This topic is for all New Horizons Pluto surface observations received after 1 Feb 2016.
-------------------- A few will take this knowledge and use this power of a dream realized as a force for change, an impetus for further discovery to make less ancient dreams real.

Here's an animation of the Pluto system approach, starting 2015-01-25 and ending 2015-07-13, played at a constant rate of 391,520 times actual speed (with the exception of a jump forward 1 1/2 seconds in, where 67 days pass in 1 second). Really love the way Charon 'corkscrews' around Pluto in the GIF |
