About Pluto & The New Horizons Mission
Pluto, once considered the ninth planet until its 2006 reclassification as a dwarf planet, captured global imagination when NASA's New Horizons spacecraft made its historic flyby on July 14, 2015. After a 9.5-year journey across 3 billion miles, New Horizons revealed Pluto in unprecedented detail—showing a complex world with nitrogen ice plains, water-ice mountains reaching 11,000 feet high, and the famous heart-shaped Tombaugh Regio region. This true-color image displays Pluto as human eyes would see it: reddish-brown terrain created by tholins (organic molecules), bright icy regions, and varied geological features that surprised scientists. The mission transformed our understanding of the outer solar system's Kuiper Belt and proved that even distant, frozen worlds remain geologically active. This print celebrates that moment of discovery—when humanity first saw Pluto up close and marveled at the beauty waiting at the edge of our cosmic neighborhood.
