Probe Performs Pluto Pass (July 14, 2015)

[ChrisReid]

The New Horizons spacecraft made its historic flyby of the Pluto this morning. There have already been some fun pictures of the dwarf planet and its moon, Charon, in the news, but these are just the previews shot with a long range camera! The real close-ups should be trickling out in the next few days. We can't wait to see!

I'll kick this one off: back when this probe launched, pluto was still a planet, we all had flip phones.. some of us still had dial-up and everyone thought PDAs would be the "NEXT BIG THING" onward and forward, New Horizon!
