You may not be be a planet anymore, but 3 billion miles later and here we are, admiring your icy mountains.

Diameter Comparison: Ganymede is 2.22 times larger than Pluto, while Titan is 2.17 times larger than Pluto.The Mercury Comparison: Both Ganymede and Titan are so large that they actually exceed the planet Mercury (4,879 km) in physical size, whereas Pluto is less than half the size of Mercury.

LET'S SEND ALL THE BILLIONAIRES, They hate earth so much.

🤯

I don't want to spoil anyone's good time, but it's fake. It's cool and it looks really neat, but it's fake. Do you know that you're posting fakes?

This is amazing...

What? What!!

It's an fn planet!

Pluneto

Another great place for a Trump hotel!!

True, though the Earth's surface area is some 30 times that of Pluto. So that's still a lot of water .. ;)

Funny. That big rock kinda looks like a PLANET to me...

When New Horizons was launched Pluto was a planet. When it got there, it wasn't.

This actually made me choke up a bit; so very cool🥹

We can get amazing video of a planet 9 years away and yet we don't have universal healthcare.

Pluto Needs Magas 😂😅😂

How much of Pluto do you think is liquid?

Can NASA outline the impacts on those mountains from the category change? When NASA et al were strongly teaching children that science is about exciting stuff like what we name something, and not about boring stuff like equations, logic, scientific integrity and honesty?

Wow! Pluto looks exactly like a 1950's scifi movie!!!

Not a bad video considering it’s 105 degrees on my deck right now! 🤣😂🥵

Nitrogen ice looks so much like gelato ...

This was in 2015

Wow

Sure looks like a planet to me.

Wow!

AND ITS A PLANET!

Stunning 🤩

Jotunheim

Extraordinary !

My new ski resort planet! 🌎 Pluto 💙🩵 🧊

Unimaginable beauty!

Relativity is real

That’s amazing. It’s hard to imagine how far away it is.

The flyover (below) is attributed apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap25051...

Amazing.

Oh yes this might be cool enough for me.

Damn that was fast 9 years. Billionaires are going to destroy the universe 💯🐷

Why is it in black and white? We had color tv when we sent it ijs 👀

Minnesota in Jan

Setsuna Meioh they could never make me hate you

thats so cool. im a sci-fi nut

And it’s still a planet!

Guessing that "ocean" is frozen methane or some such organic soup?

Still too good for him plus there's no children there for him to starve !!!

Hey. That’s more sun than they get in Seattle. Musk should go there.

What a crazy shallow horizon, wow

A nice frozen rock in space. A bit bigger than Earth's Moon but unremarcable.

Looks like my driveway in January. Snark aside, awesome image. Image appears to show an atmosphere. Or is it some type of photographic anomaly?

Wow!

We should have full self driving cars on Pluto by the end of 2035. Ice is a valuable commodity. All I need is another trillion or so.

When it launched it was still a planet. It kinda had the rug pulled out from under it.

Let's market Pluto as the New World & give our national leaders a one way ticket.

wow. amazing work, NASA.

Could we tug it closer & put Elon there? Please

Wow

WOW

Beautiful 🙏 Thank you, JPL Thank you, ESA 👍🏽 Thank you, NASA Thank you, scientific curiosity & ingenuity 🫡

"Pluto's a fucking planet, bitch!"

Wow!

Eggs price?

I asked ChatGPT what kind of ice: Nitrogen ice Methane ice Carbon monoxide ice Water ice (exposed in limited regions; forms Pluto’s rigid “bedrock” mountains).

😮

I’ll accept that Pluto is a planet or a binary system.

Overheard

And deep under Sputnik Planitia: aliens.

Pluto Size: diameter is 1,473 miles (Earth's diameter is 5.4 times larger at 7,918 miles) Pluto Temperature: Stays between -346°F and -391°F Pluto Peak: Tenzing Montes (T2) towers 3.9 miles (20,000 feet) high, made of rock-hard water ice capped in methane frost.

Absolutely fucking amazing Isn’t science great?

Is there enough room for Elon ? He’s so K’d up. We’ll tell him it’s just a test drive 3 billion miles is almost far enough from earth He just might be tolerable at that distance

Incredible.

I hope this isn't AI because Pluto looks like an awesome set from the 2nd Doctor Who era!

This is the fastest space vehicle Terra knows how to build. It will reach our nearest Star in 50,000 years

Wild to think we have the technology to leave our planet and return, capture high-res videos at the edge of our solar system and send them back home, live in orbit on the ISS. Science is the backbone of our society. It gets a bad rap because evil people use it for evil. But science is beautiful..

... and I thought Canada looked cold

Exactly, the incident sunlight would be extremely dim, about 80 lux. The sun would be just a very bright point, not a disk.

Reminds me the planet Hoth.

Banish MUSKRAT, tRUMP-n-peter thiel to this tropical paradise?

And no ski lift, ffs customer service has really gone down the toilet 😂

Wow!
