How Arrokoth Shocked NASA Scientists

Almost everything you could want to know about New Horizon’s visit to Arrokoth.

New Horizons is one of those rare machines that functions better and longer than anyone expected. It continues to provide data that adds to our understanding of this solar system and, presumably, other solar systems like ours.
The craft operates in cold too bitter to imagine, and has a connection to earth that’s slower than my first dial-up internet, but the range of analyses it can make on objects and the high res photos it can take is sophisticated and most impressive. What an amazing project!
