Pluto

(1/7) > >>

ToddF:
This one will be worth watching.  This is it.  The last planet (I'll never leave you, Pluto).  It all started when I was a little kid, sitting down at grandma and grandpa's house, watching the first pictures come in from Mars.  Think a picture loaded slowly at 28k?  Heh.  These things were coming down the screen at about a pixel a minute, it seemed.  Eventually all the planets through Neptune were visited.

There she be, about 5 months out. 

Libertas:
Planetoid my arse...in my book it is still a planet!

Just another 173 million Km to go.  It will be interesting to see the image resolution as it grows closer.

If in July it finds a sign that says "Last chance for gas this solor system" I will chuckle.   ;D

Glock32:
The probe is probably carrying some voter registration forms with it.  Just in case.

Libertas:
Absentee ballots too, no doubt.

The miracle will be the USPS actually get them in time fro the election cycle. Can't get the ballots from the military but 3.5 billion so miles....no problem. ::rolllaughing::
