New Horizons spacecraft News
)
NASA says it was the last of the 50-plus total gigabits of Pluto system data transmitted to Earth by New Horizons over the past 15 months.
)
The US space agency NASA has released a high-resolution and enhanced color view of Pluto's largest moon, Charon which was captured by New Horizons spacecraft just before closest approach on July 14, 2015.
)
New Horizons, moving at speeds that would get it from New York to Los Angeles in about four minutes, pointing its cameras, spectrometers, and other sensors at the frozen world and its moons, captured hundreds of pictures and other science data that would forever change our view of the outer solar system.
)
When New Horizons buzzed by Pluto last year, it unveiled clues that the dwarf planet might have - or had at one time - a sub-surface liquid ocean.
)
NASA says the scene was created using three separate observations made by New Horizons in July 2015.
)
The images in the mosaic were obtained by the Long Range Reconnaissance Imager (LORRI) instrument on board the NASA probe.
)
The new data, known as infrared spectra, shows the Hydra spectrum is similar to that of Pluto’s largest moon, Charon, which is also dominated by crystalline water ice.
)
Scientists discovered what looks like a giant 'bite mark' on the Pluto's surface.
)
In another image beamed back to NASA, New Horizons gives us another proof of Pluto's diversity in terms of its geological and compositional features, this time in an enhanced color image of the north polar area.
)
Images from New Horizons suggest Pluto's moon Charon may have had an ancient ocean.
)
The US space agency NASA recently released a first look of Pluto’s atmosphere in infrared wavelengths.
)
Ten years ago on this day, 19 January, 2006, the small probe - weighing barely 1,000 pounds - lifted off from Cape Canaveral.
)
NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft has released sharpest images ever of cratered, mountainous and glacial terrains on Pluto, now in colour.
)
NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft has returned the sharpest images ever of cratered, mountainous and glacial terrains on Pluto and the best close-ups of the mysterious system that humans may see for decades.
)
The Long Range Reconnaissance Imager (LORRI) instrument on NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft captured four low-resolution images of 1994 JR1 object.
)
Scientists behind the New Horizons mission have processed the entire image to reveal a breathtaking full view of Pluto.
)
According to NASA, Kerberos appears to be smaller than scientists expected and has a highly-reflective surface.
)
The colour images of Pluto obtained with New Horizon's Multi-spectral Visible Imaging Camera (MVIC) show a wide range of colours across Pluto's surface - from dark, red regions at the equator to brighter, bluer regions at higher latitudes.
)
The mission team revealed a degree of diversity and complexity in the Pluto system – from the planet's unusual heart-shaped region to its extended atmosphere and intriguing moons.
)
NASA has released the highest resolution images of Pluto`s largest moon, Charon.
