NASA’s New Horizons Mission Update from the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Lab (APL)
Weekly pre-flyby updates aired June 23 on NASA TV provides an overview of the New Horizons mission, the spacecraft and its suite of instruments being prepared for a July 14 flyby, and a summary of Pluto science to date.
Why just a fly by? Why not place a satelite in orbit from the beginning?
Hal Weaver here pronounces Pluto's moon Charon as "Share-un". But in a recent NASA documentary I just heard the narrator always pronounce it as "Care-un". So is it that both pronunciations are correct? I just wanted to share on my care on this issue.
awesome
