IMAGES OF THE SURFACE OF PLUTO LAND A GIANT STEP FOR THE AMERICAN NASA

USPA NEWS - America is the first country to reach Pluto, and this is the closest image we've ever seen. It took a decade to fly our New Horizons spacecraft through the solar system to send back this love note from the dwarf planet. Congrats on a successful #“ŽPlutoFlyBy, NASA - said The White House

IT IS A BIG DAY FOR THE NASA AND PLUTO DISCOVERING FOR THE WORLD ------------------------------------------- Today is the day for Pluto and for the NASA ( National Aeronautics and Space Administration:) ! The first images from our New Horizons spacecraft's #“ŽPlutoFlyby are being released at 3 p.m. EDT. The never-before-seen close-up images of Pluto's surface will have ten times the resolution of what we've previously seen.

Yesterday, America's space program took another historic leap for humankind. Today, the New Horizons team is bringing what was previously a blurred point of light into focus. We´ve got even more data from the #“ŽPlutoflyby coming over the next 16 months. Keep following along“¦

PLUTO ´S TINY POTATO SHAPE MON HYDRA IS SEEN NOW--------------------------------------------------------------------- Pluto's tiny potato-shaped moon Hydra emerges from the shadows, revealing its irregularly shaped body characterized by significant brightness variations over the surface. Like that of Charon, Hydra's surface is probably covered with water ice, the most abundant ice in the universe. Better images of Hydra are yet to come. Stay tuned! This image was taken by our New Horizons spacecraft during Tuesday's #“ŽPlutoFlyby.
