Clearer pics of the mysterious planet at the edge of our solar system have been taken and sent back to earth!  The shape on the surface looks like a heart wow.  Here is more about the news happening today July 14:

The New Horizons spacecraft has made its closest approach to Pluto – and by tonight, we’ll have the first ever close-up images of the dwarf planet.

The 2 hour 15 minute flyby began at 7.49 a.m. EDT (12.49 p.m. BST), during which time New Horizons was programmed to image and study Pluto, its largest moon Charon and the surrounding system. Owing to the huge distance to Pluto and complicated maneuvers planned, though, data from the spacecraft will not start arriving back at Earth until tonight.
