| Title | NASA’s New Horizons travelled 3 billion miles over 9 years to reach Pluto – but it was moving too fast to stop when it arrived | Source | Times of India |
| Description |
 NASA's New Horizons spacecraft completed its swift flyby of Pluto after a nine-year journey. The mission prioritized data collection over live communication during the brief encounter. Scientists received approximately 50 billion bits of data over fifteen months after the flyby. This slow data return revealed Pluto's complex and geologically active icy world. The mission highlighted the trade-off between reach and the patience required for discovery.
