English: Original Caption: Pluto sends a breathtaking farewell to New Horizons. Backlit by the sun, Pluto’s atmosphere rings its silhouette like a luminous halo in this image taken by NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft around midnight EDT on July 15. This global portrait of the atmosphere was captured when the spacecraft was about 1.25 million miles (2 million kilometers) from Pluto and shows structures as small as 12 miles across. The image, delivered to Earth on July 23, is displayed with north at the top of the frame. Deutsch: New Horizons sendet eine atemberaubende Abschied vonm Pluto. Die Sonne durchscheint von hinten die Atmosphäre von Pluto, der nur als Silhouette zu sehen ist - mit leuchtendem Halo. Dieses anschließend genordete Bild der globalen Atmosphäre wurde von der der NASA-Raumsonde gegen Mitternacht den 15. Juli aufgenommen. New Horizons war ca. 2 Millionen Kilometer vom Pluto entfernt, die kleinsten Strukturen sind knapp 20 km breit. Gesendet wurde die Aufnahme, am 23. Juli. |
