Is that the revenge of Pluto?

PLUTO SMASH!

I love how Uranus is all crosseyed and lopsided in that pic. :lol:

The ***** of it is that we still have to wait a few more years until New Horizons gets out there and (hopefully) sends us back gobs of lovely high-resolution images and data. Those Hubble pics are better than ones I've seen in the past, but it's still just an amorphous blob at the moment. :p

I think the article mentions that Hubble has recently finished its :( final :( upgrade so probably as a result of that

No, these pictures are apparently from back in 2002 or so and have had a few years of image-enhancement algorithms applied to them. The new hardware might provide slightly-better data, but there's only so much that Hubble can see of such a small object located so far away.

'You mean, an object that is so near :P

Depends what you're relating to what. :p

We need FTL or other uber fast technology.. yesterday! 2015 is too long to wait.
