Very Cool Animated Flyover of Pluto’s Icy Mountain and Plains
New Horizons spacecraft will do its closest flyby of Pluto on July 14, 2015. “The Wait” alludes to not just New Horizons’ 9-year, 3-billion-mile journey, but also the anticipation of people from all walks of life, excited about the first good look at Pluto. Don’t miss it as the fastest moving spacecraft to date is nearing the end of an epic journey to visit the final unexplored planet in our solar system and beyond, to the new horizons we will discover on the other side.

Thank you lbryce, when did you begin to realize that you would see this in your lifetime?
I utterly failed in ‘imagination’ for so many years.
Thanks!
Thanks for your kind words.
The sadness in me regarding the wonders of the universe is that being so vast, practically infinite is that there are things so very unimaginable no human will see. And that’s just if you believe in the one universe theory. When you start hypothesizing about the Mega-Universe, that we’re only one universe among infinite others, it’s almost too hard to comprehend.
Pretty cool...
The “plains” look almost like somebody’s been driving giant ATV’s around on them. (It’d probably be quite “fun” in the low gravity, but I’m not so sure about the temperatures!)
You are on top of it more so than most: Schrodinger’s cat
Love this guys THEORY, and his Son’s music: EELS
