NASA’s New Horizons Spacecraft sent Earth a “Love Note” from space. The feature, captured by the LLORRI instrument, looks like a giant heart. As New Horizons sends more images back to Earth over the next 16 months, scientists will at last have an opportunity to study the geology and atmosphere of Pluto. There is much science ahead and in the spirit of discovery we are all looking forward to learning more about Pluto and its moon Charon.
