Pluto's moment to shine! 10 years ago today, after travelling more than 3 billion miles, NASA's New Horizons spacecraft made its closest approach to Pluto, passing within 7,800 miles of its surface, and providing humanity with the first close-up images of this distant world. The mission revealed Pluto's stunningly diverse landscapes including vast plains, towering mountains, and mysterious ice volcanoes, reshaping our view of the Pluto system! https://go.nasa.gov/3TtCNYk | NASA History
