This whole mission is simply inspiring* some of the younger forum "experts" were still in middle school when this was conceived and launched

* wanted to say ******* awesome - truly a case where the expletive is insufficient - but of course that will be understandably redacted by forum censors

As my son says - better to ask forgiveness than permission - I don't always but that argument, but this time 😀

Liquid nitrogen sea and nitrogen ice floes. No one figured Pluto would be so dynamic.

Lots more pictures and data to download, so we can expect more surprises.
