This trippy ass .gif is a visual representation of solar winds.
When NASA's New Horizons sped past Pluto on July 14, 2015, the spacecraft also sent back over three years’ worth of measurements of the solar wind – the constant flow of solar particles that the sun flings out into space – from a region that has been visited by only a few spacecraft.
Not sure if I believe this “9th Planet” hype.
Pluto used to be #9, and look what good that did it.
What do you think?
NASA JUST DROPPED A BRAND, SPANKIN-NEW PIC OF PLUTO!
Crazy to think it’s already been three months since New Horizons zipped past Pluto!

IF THIS DOESN’T BLOW YOUR MIND, NOTHING WILL.
If this doesn’t blow your mind, nothing will.
iRobot came out 2 years before New Horizons left for Pluto...think about that.
Number 6 is a sad truth. NASA’s budget cuts mean less opportunities to explore and understand the very cosmos we live in. via vox
HELLO, PLUTO!
This is historic. 9 years traveling at 30,800 miles/hour for 3 billion miles. I can’t WAIT to see more images from this flyby.
This is Clyde Tombaugh, the man that discovered Pluto. Tomorrow, New Horizons will pass Pluto at a distance of 7,800 miles, and some of Clyde’s ashes will fly by with it. via theverge
Cannot WAIT to see the images that are captured!
