Hi guys !

it's a bit off topic, but still related somehow : we will soon have pictures of 
Kerberos, one of the Pluto's moon ! Anyway, from a distance of 7 billion kms, 
at a speed of 49 000 km/h, transmitted from the spaceship New Horizons at 1kb/s 
(yes, incredible how those guys are able to guarantee such a bandwith that far 
from earth when you see how bad can be your mobile phone communication when not 
close to an antenna...), here is some picture of Pluto :

I'm thrilled by what human beings can achieve. Too bad that we spend so much 
intelligence, money and time to make war instead of exploring the world...

Enjoy !
