We are moving further into the Jetson's realm. Here's the Pluto system as NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft saw it in July.


This super fantastic animation is made with real images taken by our celestial hero New Horizons. Start your journey with Pluto flying in for its close-up; then pass behind the ice planet [or whatever we are calling it these days] and see the atmosphere glow in sunlight before the sun passes behind it's largest moon Charon. Your wild ride will end with the interplanetary space probe’ departure, looking back on each body.

I dedicate "My Body" by Young The Giant to our new bodily finds in the cosmos.
