Strange But True

Fly Over video of Pluto's Ice Mountains getting closer with each pass, over the next few weeks more and more of the surface images will become available in ever great detail.  As somebody pointed out the cost of this mission 9.5 years the team the craft the flight divide by the distance 3 Billion Miles comes out at around 22 cents per mile and the further it travels the cheaper it will become ;-) And successive governments have reduce their investment in space. If you think they should be doing more, for future missions for the children of the future, share this post. #fixed1t

Here is a section of Pluto's southern hemisphere as photographed by New Horizons as is shot towards Pluto.  The detail is stunning. Interestingly it looks like a close-up of a huge whales head complete with eye and barnacles. This science is brilliant.  What we also know now is that should humans decide to explore space, there is a massive energy source at Pluto, like a huge filling station. The question is where is the methane coming from, methane is usually a by product of life. #fixed1t
