The first image was taken by New Horizons at a distance of about 18,000 km from Pluto, 15 minutes after its closest approach. On the right side of the image, there is a large flat area called “Sputnik Planitia” (*Sputnik Planitia is to the west of the “heart-shaped region” on Pluto. See the image in the related article). The left side of the image is a series of mountains. The highest of these mountains is about 3500m, and the width of the entire image is about 380km. On January 1, 2019, New Horizons made a close observation of Pluto, and after that, on January 1, 2019, it made a close observation of the outer solar system object “Arrokos” (called “Ultima Thule” at the time of observation), and it is still outside the solar system. continues to fly towardsread the original article
