How could I not post Pluto’s landscapes with dramatic backlighting from the sun?
Just 15 minutes after its closest approach to Pluto on July 14, 2015,
NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft looked back toward the sun and captured
this near-sunset view of the rugged, icy mountains and flat ice plains
extending to Pluto’s horizon. The image was taken
from a distance of 11,000 miles (18,000 kilometers) to Pluto; the scene
is 780 miles (1,250 kilometers) wide.
