As of 1989, mankind had successfully sent craft to every known planet in the solar system except one: Pluto. Located in an mysterious region called the Kuiper Belt, Pluto is a scientific goldmine, and could hold clues to the formation of our solar system. Alan Stern explains how NASA's New Horizons mission is going to allow us to see Pluto for the first time.
Lesson by Alan Stern, animation by Eoin Duffy.

It’s 2020
Pluto: *wells it’s been a good run*
2020 july : earth explodes , all the stars in the galaxy explodes also for unkown reasons , atoms split and everythng too , humans dont , for them to suffocate little by little until they die for 20 years
It’s official, 2020 is the worst year in the history of the world

People from 1720 “first time?”
It's because pluto had to go home to the kuiper belt to avoid spreading corona
January 2019 Mission Update, in case you're still curious:
New Horizon flyby of 2014 MU69 (Now known as "Arrokoth") has been confirmed to be successful. It's the 2nd flyby accomplished by New Horizon after Pluto. Arrokoth is a KBO (Kuiper Belt Object) minor planet orbiting the Sun at an average distance of 44.6 AU (Astronomical Unit).
(Note: 1 AU = 93 million miles; Distance bet. Sun and Earth)
Arrokoth has set the record of becoming the farthest object ever explored by a spacecraft.
However, New Horizon isn't done yet. In April 2020, the spacecraft was used to take pictures of nearby stars Proxima Centauri and Wolf 359. A year later in April 2021, it has already reached
50 AUs (5 billion miles) and set to explore the outer edge of the Kuiper Belt together with its 3rd flyby mission (Target to be determined). New Horizon continues to have sufficient power to be operational until the 2030s.
Wow, that is such mind-blowing

I grew up knowing Pluto was a planet then all of a sudden they announce pluto was no longer a planet 🤔🤔
Well, it really happens. It's like growing up learning that the Earth is flat or the sun orbits it, then new information comes in to dismiss those.
And we can't let Pluto stay as a planet without Ceres, Vesta, Charon, or any other dwarf planets of similar (even greater) mass. We'll have a solar system with a hundred planets and counting. We're actually taking out the discrimination.
Keith Mesa
Hum non really the same. It’s just the definition wich changed
At least you get to say to pesky kids "when I was your age, Pluto was a planet" :p
Science is always improving, that's why it isn't great to hold onto old ideologies if a better one comes along. If Pluto is still recognized as a planet, then that means there are another bodies in our solar system which should be recognized as one too since they are closer to us and bigger then Pluto.

An object that orbits the Sun or any object that directly orbits a star or star system, and is large enough for differentiation through gravitational separation, aka big enough to be round due to gravity, and therefore large enough for active geology due to gravity, is a Planet as far as I'm concerned.
No object in the entire universe is defined by external factors. Your car doesn't become a bicycle or cease being a car because you drive in a bike lane. If you pitch a tent beside your house it doesn't become a house, and your house doesn't become a tent. No external factors define objects. This is fundamentally simple logic.
Let's apply a practical example, you're standing on the surface of an object that has a flat apparent horizon, next to an active volcano that is about to kill you. By definition your still willing to argue that the object your standing on is not a planet due to external factors that are billions of Kilometers away. If that makes sense to you, you should seriously review your biases.
Let's review some similar terminology. Through science fiction the term "Gas Giant" has been adopted and stuck. This has further evolved to encompass the term Ice Giant. Yet no one will argue that these further classifications are somehow "not planets." When someone says "Dwarf Planet" is a descriptive classification it makes sense as scientific progress. The moment someone says "Dwarf" somehow disqualifies an object as a planet, they reveal an intellectual limitation. Such an argument is absurd in my opinion. Name another object defined by external factors.
Stars are defined by nuclear fusion, which is the result of internal gravitational interaction. Similarly, all objects in a solar system, galaxy, and physical universe are defined by their interaction with gravity. Once an object is around 900+ Kilometers in diameter it is large enough for it's own gravity to define it through gravitational differentiation in a fairly uniform way.
The solar system we occupy is not special. Planets orbit stars. Our planets are no different than any other planets orbiting other stars. The term "planet" must encompass all of these by definition. If someone proposes we definite the term planet through an objects relationship to external objects, no planets can be confirmed to exist around any other star because we are unable to verify these external factors. I find such a definition to be inadequate and poorly chosen at best. The argument for such a definition appears to be political in nature and stated with such evangelism as a philosophical narrative. Such an argument seems archaic and quite unbelievable that it is even considered by academia. Decades from now, this issue will be a stain on those involved. They will be remembered for such an embarrassing debacle.

The thumbnail made Pluto look all cute...but in reality I hope it isn't dangerous...🤔
TimothyAdams VEVO it's not dangerous to us on Earth. However, it is very, very cold there, so going there would be difficult.
Frayace Dare thanks for what I meant, lol 🤗
That annotation was very well placed at the end... Good job.
Amazing video! I love the visuals! And such an amazing story of what we have achieved thus far
This is interesting! My questions please:
1. How many engines keep the space explorer going like that
2. I guess the fuel is recycled, right?
3. Is the spacecraft expected to return someday?
1. None. The rocket that launched New Horizons also pushed it on its way to Jupiter. It's been coasting ever since. Electric power is provided by a nuclear battery (RTG).
2. No.
3. No. It's headed straight out of the solar system.
2:50 Jupiter is a real one right there

Interesting. Why would computer just freeze and wipe all of its data? Even more puzzling, why there would not be any back up systems in place?
Computers do that *all* the time. It's happened on laptops also, Why they wouldn't have a backup system is odd.
Saya Beast
I assume such a back-up would be wiped-out in a re-boot, too. (Correct me if I'm wrong.)
Too heavy. But idk why don't they store the backup on earth to easily execute a backup program
*illuminati music intensifies*
After googling a bit, I'm still a bit confused, but I found this: news.wttw.com/2018/05/17/chasing-new-horizons-untold-drama-behind-pluto-mission and this: www.edn.com/design/analog/4443006/Mission-to-Pluto--An-interview-with-New-Horizons--MOM- and others.
I'm not understanding everything (and it's too late for me to want to google more). The computer was trying to do two tasks at once (it should have been able to do them, but something happened and it didn't), a timing glitch occurred and the spacecraft went into safe mode, shutting down off every non-essential system.
So they had to restore the spacecraft from safe mode, while testing every system, then "reconstruct and retransmit" the files, testing everything on a simulator before. This means that they couldn't simply send everything from backup, as the situation had changed? and they needed to alter a bunch of files. And considering the data transmission rate is a maximum of 4kb/s...
I'm kind of assuming the exact technical problem is extremely complex, so they are explaining it in a simplified way.
Wow. Thankful to Ted for the content. 🤍
The animations are cherry on the cake.
all this gets me so excited and also brings tears to my eyes. Can never get enough of Space.

Excellent animation and a fascinating lession!
I love Pluto, it's a planet. When our sun goes nova, we should live there.
eveny119 unfortunately, Pluto is NOT a planet. Think about it, there are numerous moons larger then Pluto. Where Pluto is located there are a huge number of objects just like Pluto, so if you consider Pluto a planet then you just added tens of new planets as they are the same size or even bigger. And when our sun goes supernova Pluto would be so cold, like vacuum of space cold. So we might as well just fly away in a giant space ship, if global warming doesn’t kill us all first.
Are you saying SIZE matters? I like it a bit cold. If it's not a moon (revolving around Uranus for example) and it DOES revolve around the sun= planet. @@meatburger6910
eveny119 there are thousands of objects that orbit the sun. Literally tens of thousands and by your logic their all planets, and we don’t learn about the 20,000 planets do we? No we don’t so their obviously a problem with your logic. And you “Like it a bit cold” I hope this is a joke because it will be minus hundreds of degrees.
@@meatburger6910 The whole thing is a joke except that Pluto is a planet.
eveny119 Until you respond to the points in my reply don’t say anything, Pluto is not a planet because there are thousands of objects bigger then Pluto that orbit the sun. So why is Pluto a planet and not them? One answer: Pluto is not a planet.
Umm it's been 2 years already. Have we reached yet? We want a part 2🙏

If you were to throw something in space and nothing were to hit it, wouldn't it just accelerate until it hits light speed?
nobody nobody Not quite. Since space is a vacuum, there's no air resistance or friction that will act on something you throw. There's nothing that will slow the object down. However, the object will not speed up. After you throw the object and it leaves your hand, there is no other force acting on it, so its speed will stay the same.
That's correct, but there is something slowing it down... the Sun's gravity. New Horizons was given boosts of speed by it's gravitational slingshots off the planets, but while it is between planets it is constantly decelerating.
Thanks!
Jim Keen Right, I didn't consider that part of it. I was answering a more general part of the original poster's question (whether something in a frictionless environment would infinitely speed up), so thank you for adding a more accurate elaboration. :)
Well I don't think so , try shoot a gun in space ,im just curious
