- A lake flowing with a mysterious liquid? A Volcano that erupts frozen magma? An iceberg floating in solid ice? What NASA's New Horizons spacecraft discovered on Pluto, the icy dwarf planet towards the edge of the solar system is stunning. So many unexpected features were seen on the icy world, some of which scientists still can't explain today. Join me as we look at the most surprising features discovered on Pluto so far.

Enjoy this video? Now find out why scientists think there could be LIFE on Proxima Centauri B, the closest exoplanet to Earth! - th-cam.com/video/MdCQbzYKmpw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=An6WfECC5PZ_9rSo
What do you make of the recent trend of anti-science flat-Earthers? You literally can't get a true word into their pee brains.
Hello Good morning, excellent video, I love the planet Pluto, it has been my favorite planet since I was a child, and even today at 40 years old, and what makes me sad is that it is no longer the ninth planet in the solar system, that is many years ago, and if I'm not mistaken, more or less more than 15 years ago it is no longer there, now it is a dwarf planet, and please what is the name of the song that plays at the end of the video?, I loved it, and I thank you for information about this song, and congratulations on the work, successes always for you, I'm going to subscribe to the channel, and you gained a subscribed friend from Brazil, and much peace and best regards from São Paulo SP Brazil, and may GOD bless you ^^.
Fabbbbb !!!
Still soooo many surprised coming from James Webb telescope .. GONE OUT ofourknown Universe he....
The fact a probe was sent to Pluto and I got to see what it looks like in my lifetime, I'll cherish that for the rest of my life. Truly, what New Horizons accomplished on its mission is amazing of a once in a lifetime mission. Pluto to me is still planet 9. Keep up the great work V! Love your videos!🥰
Wow 😍
We’ve been blessed to live in an era of compounding scientific breakthroughs in terms of space and I can’t wait for the next decade
If Pluto remains planet 9, would you define Ceres, Makemake, Quaoar, Sedna, Orcus, Haumea, Gongong, and Eris as planets? They are all drawf-planets roughly the same size and orbit the sun. What about comets? Where do you draw the line? We can't just keep Pluto a planet because we like it. Pluto reflects light very well, so we believed it to be much larger for a long time. Sometimes size does matter as much as you don't want to admit it.
The fact is you can't prove any of this ever happened. You have absolutely no physical evidence & you weren't there
I am closing the gate at Pluto. The rest can get stuffed. We don't have open borders in space.@@StrangeHappening-iu4fu
Pluto, a planet in our hearts and old science books.
Pluto, a planet where Joe Biden needs to live.
@@ricktaylor3748why would he move there? he already has rent free apartment in your head
@@breloom8448 Only the Wise old owl knows.
@@politelyvulgarvernacular
Yeah, I'm soooooo shamed.🤔
Not a planet
I went to this planet a few million years ago, i still remember those days
what
man quit smoking that funny stuff
I went there too
ski two years ago had a great time..
I always like to imagine what it would be like to stand on Pluto. It’d be cold and dark but to see such a majestic view in person, that would be incredible
I'm 61 and ever since I was a kid I was always fascinated by outer space. I find it amazing how scientists can analyze a photo and determine how big something is and how something was formed
For a tiny planet, it's got a lot going on...restore it as a major planet...
Great video 📹

@@StrangeHappening-iu4fu yes we would collectively have to make an exception for Pluto, but only for sentimental reasons.
@@StrangeHappening-iu4fuPluto ticks all the boxes to be classified as a planet and we should go by that and declare whatever seems fit to be called as a planet
@Svenskanorden1Yes, that would be great! Having more planets to explore sounds exciting!
@@StrangeHappening-iu4fuAll of those objects you mentioned are planets. Orcus, Sedna, Ixion, Eris, Haumea, all planets. You don’t draw a line, you take the data as it is. You don’t get to create an arbitrary cutoff.
This is without a doubt one of the coolest videos I’ve ever seen.
I still have my old astronomy books, mostly showing Pluto as a boring and inert cratered ball no different from Mercury or the Moon, but colder this time. But after New Horizon visited it 6.5 years ago (gosh I'm old), Pluto turned out to be more beautiful and dynamic than we could ever have possibly imagined before that. I myself was shocked to see the glaciers, the icebergs, the convection cells and the ice mountains, as well as Pluto's blue atmosphere no different from Earth's but very thin only.
When I was a kid, I painted Pluto as a small rocky purple moon, or a Mercury looking planet. It looks more beautiful in reality than my child mind could ever imagine.
I remember having a few books like that. A bland gray rock, no different from Mercury beyond one being warmer than the other. Glad we can finally see more of our favorite planet.
Just think how many more objects out there that we think are just boring and cold, but are actually really interesting places we haven't discovered yet.
It still bothers me that the scientists demoted Pluto not long after I was taught that it was our official 9th planet in school
I understand you. It's still Pluto though! Nothing has changed, just a title.
Does Pluto care and does it make any difference how classify it?
Just because they did, doesn't mean you have to. Hope that makes your day!
Get over it.1st world problem
I interned at JPL while in college and the Pluto planet-not-planet debate raged all over the Pasadena campus. Pluto will always be a planet to me!
The liquid came from the tears Pluto cried when it was no longer a planet. Damn you !
Thanks for the story and these amazing pictures. It's so amazing that there are not enough words to describe the experience...
It seems to me that these studies of the planets of the solar system are one of the greatest achievements of science. The experience they give us is the most incredible and valuable of what is available to the human mind.
Interesting, what happened to the New Horizons spacecraft at the end of the mission? Was he sent further to the Kuiper belt?
Thank you for using both Imperial units - (miles) and metrics - (kilometers), in your narration, unlike the BBC's Sky at Night - which only uses kilometres for some reason. Using both methods of measuring distance is more inclusive, as helps everyone understand and appreciate the scale of this amazing place we live, the universe.
I remember you making a video about Neptune with similar descriptions of cryovolcanic activity and hidden underground lakes.. It almost seems like even frozen planets somehow have a heated core surrounded by a cooler crust.
This really gives a different perspective on the outer planets we previously thought were just floating balls of solid ice. (Magic Schoolbus springs to mind)
Thanks Rob! Excellent work as always, more please!
Thanks for the content as always. I appreciate all the work you put in these videos.
The fact that the heliosphere can interact with a planet as far as Pluto is fascinating, what's equally as incredible is we have pictures of one of the most distant objects in our solar system, I'm looking forward to all the new discoveries in the future with space exploration.
Thanks again for the great video, Rob 👍
Always fascinating to see the various geological and weathering effects, especially when you realise how minimal and slight these effects are. On planets over billions of years with no outside influence of any life.
Another well presented documentary & excellent documented. Thanks & love all your other videos.
Again thanks.
Australia...
I love how he uses the word "remote" to describe a planet, like it's a hard to reach fishing spot.
I love his using of extreme adjectives to describe planets or stars like "enormous" "gigantic" "fascinating" "breath taking"
Or the little box with buttons that you change channels on the tv.
Dwarf planet
True and the best fishing spot on Pluto is particularly remote.
First video of yours that I’ve seen, and I have to say it is BY FAR the best space oriented one I’ve seen thus far. Sub well earned 👍🏼
Nailed it yet again Robb! Thanks for a great video!
Hello Rob, these close up images are the first I've seen, and are amazing, when I was in school we were told that Pluto was the 9th Planet in our Solar System and as far as I'm concerned, still is, Thank You Sir, have a safe and enjoyable weekend, and keep looking up! 🌎 👍
The ninth planet?
Yes, of course it is!
It’s not a moon is it?
🤪🤪🤪🤪
Pluto was a planet when I went to school, and shall remain so in my mind. And now I've seen it. This is mind blowing. I love V101!
Thanks for sharing, big fan of your channel !
You got that right Rob,unusual activity including pictures of huge snail like creature's moving on it's surface & massive cylindrical spaceships on the horizon
As a Photographer its just amazes how far we have come in just 20+ years in digital technology. Like to go from a yellow blurry circle to these shots of Pluto is just amazing!
As a plutonion, I approve these findings 😅
Nice try earthling 😂
another great work. beautiful pluto we should petition to get back in to our solar system. i miss you pluto come back
Is bill gates probably owns it now
You are the best in universe videos . Amazing work , well done. You deserve much more subscribers. Thanks.
Fascinating. thank you for these interesting videos
Spectacularly narrated, beautiful images, incredibly described. Love the "real image" indicator in bottom left hand of screen an love love love the way both metric an standard measurements were given throughout video!!!!
Not sure if it was discussed in the video but what are those reddish/brown areas seen on the surface?
How cool is that. I wish we could visit Pluto safely and return home. I've always thought of Pluto as a ball of rock with no atmosphere. But that's all changed. Mountains made of water ice harder than granite?
Pluto will always be a planet to me
And a friend of Mickey Mouse.
Also Arizona's planet
I like your positive and creative mindset.
The Next step of exploration is getting Closer !
Loved the video bro, thanks, you’re very interesting, keep me watching.
Brilliant video and commentary, thank you.
When scientists and space fans first studied close-up images of Pluto, captured by NASA's New Horizons spacecraft, they were stunned.
So many unexpected features were seen on the icy world, some of which scientists still struggle to explain today. Through a combination of stunning real images and animated visuals, we'll explore these discoveries and delve into the science behind them. Which is your favourite? Let me know below! V
The heart shaped region. That's Pluto saying " I ❤ Clyde Tombaugh ".
It's a wonderful planet 😍
Yes
Rob this is urgent there's something called the asteroid psyche mission can you please explain what it is?
I like Pluto. It's mysterious, dark, and so faraway. One day when technologies advanced, on our way to the stars we will drop by on Pluto?
It is very nice and I want to know more 👍
Hi
Awsome video.
Learned a lot..
Thanks.
Outstandingly narrated with clear tones, excellent pausing and emphasis.
Its pretty awesome we now know what pluto looks like. I remember when the new horizons probe was first launched! It was really exciting when it finally got there.
Pluto will always be a planet to most of us. It’s absolutely incredible to see these images and hear proper information about it
You should do a video on recently discovered Earth like exoplanets!
There’s no point, the planet Earth is in decline. Soon it will look like an empty rocky sponge. Nothing on it alive, just rocks, sand and a few volcanoes. The inhabitants ruined the natural ecosystems and all life went extinct! 🤪🤪
It was so interesting knowing that she had a mountain volcanos and icebergs and used to have water thank you for doing the video if you never did it I would of never knew
Thank you for such an amazing video. 👏🏻👏🏻
great video - thanks so much
Wish I could visit the heart in real life, set foot on those nearby mountains.
What a beautiful world.
Don't forget your thermals!
-800C might need extra layers. 🥶
Such astonishing clarity from so very far away...
I don’t care what those scientists say about Pluto, it is still a planet to me. And I hope the next mission to Pluto will have a craft spend more time around the planet and its moons.
Being a Scorpio on horoscope scale still Pluto and Mars will always be my mommy and daddy, taking care of me and actually did in my life time.
First GoPro camera in Pluto! Congrats!
Can you do a video on what you would see if you were to land on Io? Titan, Europa, Callisto and a lot of other famous moons
magnificent video 😊 there must be life somewhere in our solar system 😊
Come to think of it, I had a puppy named Pluto. Great video though, with stunning graphics. Love to go there one day
Truly magnificent!
These wonderful discoveries only strengthen my belief that for now we need to really concentrate on robotic missions. Manned exploration beyond the moon is just to costly, dangerous and currently holds no great promise of returning much valuable science. Safe manned exploration is easily a century away yet.
Thanks for this great video. Wishing you and Rolo a great weekend! 🇺🇸❤🇬🇧
Most of what we humans are is what we don't know, and can't live long enough to find out or learn about. Let's be thankful for libraries, videos, and other ways of documenting what is discovered.
Great stuff thanks
Pluto's always been my favorite planet, I know, but to me it'll always be our 9th planet, it's colors are beautiful
Awesome 👌
Well done
Beautiful and panoramic photos of Pluto. 👍👌
Pluto always fascinates me
This is just Amazing
Very interesting and Pluto is amazing
Thank you for the well produced video. I appreciate clearly indicating which are real and which are exemplar images. One of Pluto's features that is not mentioned is the yellowish area extending from the 'north' pole (uppermost in the images) down perhaps 45 degrees of latitude (e.g.: ~4:49). What is the composition?
Very interesting. Thank you.
Girlfriend: "There's no point looking at Pluto, it's not even a plannnnett. It's borrring..."
Me: "Well I'm not looking at Uranus until you lose 10 more pounds."
"....causing these surprising features that no-one expected...!" - You certainly have a facility for the litotic phrase there V101!!
Its frozen, I hate the cold, I've struck it off my bucket list. Still, it does look pretty.
I hate cold but i live in Quebec, Canada and sometimes, -37c is like life on Pluto!🥶
@@murielvaillancourt3855 Yes, Canada can get cold. I would never live near the cold. Any country that has more than 5 words for snow is a red flag to me.
take a drink every time this guy says "glory"
Love your explanation 🖐👍
Merci pour cette belle vidéo
Very good information 👍
this is revelations of human fenamenan very good quality and Best of puloto video.thanks
Great explain awesome video
Fascinating stuff.
Your voice makes the video unique!
Imagine being there, in a remote outpost or something, redefines the word lonely.
Excellent
I remember learning in school that the atmosphere freezes and falls to the ground as a blue snow.
Mindblowing, space had no beginning and has no end
Just like God
@@dreamingoftacos4388 Lol, i thought god created everything in 10 days
@@SynthematixGod didn't create space and live that was big bang
@@Synthematix6 actually👍
@@Junior-th9rtGod did indeed create everything. It's more unbelievable to me that all these planets that just hang in space, including all of the other galaxies etc, just happened by accident. No there was and is certainly a supreme being who created it all. There is a God!
this is the most fascination thing I've ever seen❗ 😻
Wait i was interested on plute lately and you made a video about it
Why the hell couldn't we have had this technology in 1979-1999 So we could have watched Pluto pass nearest to the sun. That sucks!☹
I like to imagine that Pluto and other planets are just out there right now when I'm lying on my couch and write this comment. It must be so cold and windy there. Watching videos about the universe also helps me to realize how nonsense some of my "problems" are.
Breathtaking
Nice pix. Pretty cool
Beautiful planet
Very cool. Pluto will always be a planet to me. At least the scientists recognise it as a dwaf 'planet', it's a start.
Pluto should NEVER have been demoted. Thanks Tyson! It's an extraordinary planet. A frozen lake, aye yi yi.
Are you really that bitter about it?? Deal with it! 😮😮😮
@@Contessa6363 No not really. You deal with this - GFY!
for some reason my heart melted when i first saw pluto. It hellish landscapes. it a dull grey rock, etc etc. Every we been thought all our lives. We were in awe of jupier size, saturn ring, uranus weird cloud and neptunes beauty. Then the final planet in our solar system that we demoted due to stupid reason was revealed and what did we see? its heart as it greeted us.
It almost as if pluto was saying “what took you guys? Im your biggest fan! you made it!”
weird i know
Pluto is planet, no questions asked.
Nice video good information
Fascinating.
Could it be that the conditions and features of other planets, stars ,moons etc. is what maintains our planet Earth as it is.
Good video
Since not all life on other planets will be carbon-based like us, its possible there could be life under the icx surface of Pluto.
Awesome👍
So baffling how these huge worlds hang up there in the empty space so freely...
Thank you.
