Easily the most exciting mission IMO of this decade. Imagine all the things
we will see. And the best part is that like the recent fly by of Mercury
seen by Curiosity from Mars it will be a first. We are living these moments.
These guys are right, a planet/dwarf whatever it will be named after more
research, that is so small yet has so many moons, especially Charon. And
Hubble’s images brought even more questions to than answers.
Funny thing, as a kid whenever i imagined Pluto for me it would be an icy
world with thick ice storms and the like. And yet it’s red. What secrets
does it hold? Or it’s moons?
I cannot wait for next year to roll out. Super excited.?

“Imagine seeing something for the first time. That’s what NASA is about to
do!”?

I can’t wait for the first public images!?

Does a satellite like this use compressed gas to steer? if so how does it
not run out??
July 15th, 2014 at 4:49 am
I can’t wait!! I’ve been following this since its launch! ?

Just a fly by? I thought it was going to orbit it. Where is new horizons
going to go after that? Im guessing it will exit the solar system and not
be used again? ?

I have always wondered how on Earth they direct a satellite and send images
back from THAT far, anybody care to enlighten me? Amazing stuff, can’t
wait!?
July 15th, 2014 at 4:49 am
very soon?
July 15th, 2014 at 4:49 am
Maybe they will start calling it a planet again. That is awesome to be
going that far. ?
July 15th, 2014 at 4:49 am
Me so excite !?

So we can see the beginning of the universe but we can’t get a good picture
of Pluto? ?
July 15th, 2014 at 4:49 am
Can’t wait.?
July 15th, 2014 at 4:49 am
Pluto bring us destruction, and by gods will within us we’ll create a new
beginning. Those who are apparent of the synchronicity, may we prepare for
that glorious moment. Look to Pluto and behold another reflection of truth.?

It must be so much more exhilirating for those who waited a decade for
this. Amazing?
