Re: [FairfieldLife] Welcome back Pluto!
New Horizons just crossed the orbit of Neptune. It then will go into hibernation for 99 days. The photo is a painting or a digital painting, an artist's rendition of what they think it will be like. Right now Neptune is imaged as just a few pixels, Pluto is just a single pixel. It's still 284 days away from closest approach. The colour of Pluto and some of its surface variations have been photographed by Hubble but the image is very blurry to say the most even with extensive computer processing. We have no idea yet what its surface features are like in any detail. Here is the Hubble image, currently the best we have until New Horizons passes Pluto about the middle of next year: http://scienceblogs.com/startswithabang/files/2010/02/image.jpg View on scienceblogs.com Preview by Yahoo This Hubble image of Pluto is technically equivalent to photographing an air gun BB from a distance of 9.4km, or an American quarter dollar coin from 51km. New Horizons will have to get pretty close to Pluto before it can image it better than this Hubble image.

Jyotish only uses the visible planets not the outer ones. It's tropical astrology that wants not only to use Pluto but asteroids as well.

Pluto would be tracking a 248 year cycle! Bit longer than I'm expecting to be around. But they wouldn't just be tracking, seems to me that they would have to be connected for it be relevant as opposed to just a coincidence. In fact, King Tony joins the planets to bits of the brain, complete bollocks as far as I'm concerned but he's obviously thought about it. Funny thing is his diagram has the outer planets but no link to the brain for them. Could be the worst bit of science I have ever seen. But the really baffling thing for me is the chart itself; someone born in one place has a different effect from the same planets as someone born somewhere else or somewhen else. It's all too hellishly complex that everyone has a different map of life from the same few planets whirling about at the varying distances the manage during their (and our) orbit. But we must be locked in some sort of cycle because I've a niggling feeling we've discussed this before once or twice ;-)
