    I think the most fascinating part of this mission is just how far away Pluto is. They launched this thing on a rocket so fast that it reached the moon’s orbit in 9 hours, Jupiter in about a year, and it STILL took 9 years to get there!

      I can't express my excitement over New Horizons later stages. As a boy who cut his teeth on reports from the Mariner missions, every step in the exploration of the Sol system has captured my imagination. Even as a child I knew we'd never have the biggest answers of extra-solar life, but the promise in the discovery of earthlike planets around other stars has been the crowning thrill of a lifetime.
      Our current definition of what constitutes a planet is too small for what we will find in this galaxy....specifically, the IAU's 2006 rather arbitrary determination that a planet needs to clear its orbit of other bodies will, in time, prove itself dunsel in the face of discoveries in extrasolar systems. It's a short-time fad...a semantic glich. It will not stand any broad test of time.
      Pluto isn't defined as a planet at this moment, but it has been for far longer than it hasn't. It will be again within the lifetimes of some reading this.

      I also heard that it took into jupiters orbit and took 4 years off the destination time then took neptunes orbit and knocked 7 years off, the whole landing was actually set to land in 2026-2027 but luckily it did what it did and knock 11 years off it’s track. It’s crazy too. If you really think about it when we look through a telescope to a planet in a whole other solar system, when your looking at it, it could possibly be from millions to billions of years ago. In other words if a alien was looking into a telescope at our planet right now, they would be seeing the dinosaurs not us! It’s really cool to actually think about!

It was not our intention to see it launch. I was 13 at Disney World throwing a fit because I didn't want to go into a shop (I was tired from the heat and walking all day), so my parents left my stubborn ass on a bench just outside the shop and I passed out on it. An older lady woke me up saying "that rocket is launching you need to see it". I wish I knew her name so I could thank her today if she is still alive because at that moment I knew thats what I wanted to do!

    Do you know why New Horizons takes the form of a yellow triangular prism, with a short RTG and a shield-like antenna?
    "The lighter, the faster."
    A triangle has the least area of all polygons, for it is the simplest form of polygons. No diagonals. Lesser area, lesser mass.
    The yellow wrap surrounding the craft is a thermal blanket, which is used to insulate the craft from the freezing cold of deep space.
    A short RTG is present because the probe's initial objective is exploration of the Kuiper belt, and Pluto. It is not designed for interplanetary or interstellar activities, like the Voyagers.
    The antenna is shield-like so that data can easily be found on a very small space probe the size of a grand piano.
    The little circle on the other face of the prism is a connector to the rocket. It is the only instrument used for contact between the probe and the launch vehicle.
    ----
    These are the major parts of the spacecraft. The instruments are small, some the size of a phone.

    Having a relatively close and large moon such as Charon could generate tidal forces, which could create some melt water and release gasses from its interior. Small trickles of water from deep within its warmer interior would collect and release bubbles of gas. These would force their way between cracks and trickle out or be released as geysers onto Pluto's surface.

    • @1bloodnovski
      @1bloodnovski Před 5 lety +4

      Pluto and Charon are in orbitally fixed position, so Charon cannot generate tidal forces

    • @robertbarlow6359
      @robertbarlow6359 Před 5 lety +1

      bloodnovski You mean they're both tidal locked - that Pluto isn,t spinning individually of Charons orbital lock ? I know our moon generates tidal forces on earth and the earth rotates separately from our moons tidal locked side. Perhaps it's that Pluto has another close moon - if that one orbited differently to pluto and Charon, maybe that would generate some tidal forces just enough to disturb Pluto's interior to create some venting. Otherwise, maybe Pluto's system is relatively young and is still cooling internally.

    • @mitchellheckethorn6003
      @mitchellheckethorn6003 Před 5 lety +1

      True...if Charon and Pluto rotated seperately, their would be even more volcanos on the surface. I think Charon needs slowed down a little and collide with pluto. Make for a nice sized outpost world. Then we could move another dwarf planet into orbit around pluto within an appropriate time after the charon-Pluto collision would keep the core liquafied and engage it's magnetic field. We would still have to wrap the planet with some type of panels and/or wrap to hold in apmosphere and heat in. We could have a new world to colonize rite here in our solar system.

      lpg Splurge,
      Have you stopped to consider you might not know everything? Perhaps that is why it makes no sense.
      First off, it down't take 2 days to get to the ISS. The record fastest launch to dock is 6 hours.
      space.stackexchange.com/questions/4650/how-long-does-it-take-to-get-to-iss
      It usually takes much longer because orbital rendezvous is a highly complex operation that that I'm sure you wouldn't understand anyway, but it is not as straight forward as you'd imagine.
      The 3 day trip to the moon was done at a much higher speed than going to the ISS, stating out at 25000 MPH (compared to 17000 MPH for orbit)
      Saying this makes no sense is like saying it makes no sense that it takes half an hour to walk a mile but I can go 70 miles in 1 hour driving a car.
      Finally, the Hebrew word for deceive is "ramot"
      "NASA" isn't a word, it is an acronym that stands for "National Aeronautics and Space Administration."
      In 1915 the government formed an origination called the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics. They were the agency that conducted research surrounding aviation and *ADVISED* Congress on legislation having to do with aviation.
      In 1958 they were restructured to include space research, while still filling their earlier role.
      As for your connection with the Jews, do not forget, one of the early champions for NASA was a known Nazi.
      I guess the Jews don't have so much power after all.
