Glorious imagery of an exotic planetary dwarf system isolated by billions of miles seen for the first time by human eyes.

Be enthralled, thrilled by them all!

That’s not a planet, that’s a space station!

LOL!

Do one for Charon - it’s already got a line at its equator.

So, are we back to 9 planets or are we still at 8 as the new number?

They said mountains. Mountains of ice or mountains of rock and dirt?

Just wondering.

So this is what cutting 40,000 troops gets us, a big snow ball? Who cares.

Pluto and its moon Charon have always fascinated me.
Was gonna say ‘colourful pics’ in the link, but colours are exaggerated as said.
Cold place; still fascinating. But Pluto has 5 moons; Charon is the largest. Pity the Sun doesn’t shine!

But what keeps them up there just floating around? Are they full of gas or something?
