What will they find on the surface of Pluto tomorrow?

The NASA New Horizons spacecraft is just hours from Pluto, having received final commands for its close encounter early Tuesday with the dwarf planet, which is rapidly revealing itself as a geologically complex little world.

This 9 1/2-year journey to a tiny keyhole in space some 3 billion miles from Earth is the equivalent of a golfer on the East Coast hitting a ball across the continent and making a hole-in-one in Los Angeles. So declared the project manager, Glen Fountain, on Monday morning in a news briefing at the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, the home of the New Horizons mission.

“People talk a lot about how surreal it is that we’re really here,” principal investigator Alan Stern said. “It feels like you’ve been walking on an escalator for almost a decade, and then you step upon a supersonic transport.”

    • I know it was obvious and I know the ref is to blame! But KB is a bum and my original post was about the situation in its entirety. You are right, he did touch him and that's why I said lay down on him to make it obvious. But KB did everything half assed and that is why he had less than a five year career. But the way Cam supported that kid and the way he ended up acting in the end is a dark spot on the franchise. It just doesn't sit well with me and never will. He literally left here talking about ball placement from a league MVP. 
    • The Lee Hunter interview with Sheena Quick almost murdered me. That man said he had a 5 years old and a 2 munt year old!! 😂 and all of a sudden I couldn’t breathe!!
    • DLine has to be 50-79 or 90-99. So it’s likely to stay 92 over 62 or 52. Scourton and Phillips can wear a poo ton of numbers as “linebackers”, but the war daddy’s are still pretty limited.
