"Hello, Pluto."
 
   Ready for the close-up:

Nasa's New Horizons probe flew by Pluto this morning (Tuesday July 14) at 7:49 a.m. Critical information will be transmitted this evening and tomorrow, with further science information gathered during the flyby transmitted over the next several months.

Not yet, but they have already gotten things ready for a good old planet scan!

Remember, they don't realise there could possibly be anyone living on those impossibly hot inner planets, so don't expect them to hold up "We Are Here" signs. It would probably take something like a personal visit from the First Lensman to catch their attention.

   We're missing an issue here.

Pluto has a heart on it.

Pluto knows we defend its right to be considered a planet

AND IT LOVES US AND IS SAYING THANK YOU

   Actually, if you look closer/further down, you'll see it's just the top half of an equator-straddling X. as in "Planet X".
Yup, Duck Dodgers had the right of it all along.

   And NASA has received the expected telemetry from the spacecraft. All systems appear to be nominal and the probe has recorded the expected amount of data.
