Changing Views of Pluto: Hubble's Universe Unfiltered

Ғылым және технология

Pluto's classification as a "dwarf planet" came as a shock to some, but in reality our understanding of Pluto has always been in flux. Pluto is a tiny, distant, icy object, difficult to see even with Hubble's vision. Join a Hubble astrophysicist as we explore our history with Pluto, from its discovery to the excitement over the upcoming visit by the New Horizons space probe, in Hubble's Universe Unfiltered.
"Hubble's Universe" is a recurring broadcast from HubbleSite, online home of the Hubble Space Telescope. Astrophysicist Frank Summers takes viewers on an in-depth tour of the latest Hubble discoveries. Find more episodes at HubbleSite.org.

    Anyone else notice that @ 1.21 there is an arrow pointing to 'a little white dot' that supposedly moves to 'there' @1.24... however the same 'white dot' is still at the same position where it started. It's the 'little white dot' left and a little up to the one mentioned that actually moves to the new position. Just saying. Great series of videos. Thank you for uploading.

    Milt Humason, working with Edwin Hubble made 4 photographic plates in which Pluto appears 11 years before Tombaugh's discovery. Humason and Hubble were working on another project and missed the tiny moving dot in one corner of the plates. So this is the 5th image of Pluto.

    Maybe it is due to the much colder environment together with the much lower density of the solar-wind, causing Pluto to have a firmer grasp on its atmosphere. We know that gas-giants in close orbit to their stars, lose their atmospheres as well, since they are being 'cooked' to phenomenal temperatures, so my best guess would be that gravity is not the only determining factor in having an atmosphere.

    Amazing channel. Thanks. Now I'm going to be a bit of an ass so sorry in advance......you incorrectly marked Pluto at 1:13 , in the first image Pluto is actually the dot slightly above and to the left of the one marked with an arrow, and on the second image its slightly above and to the right. Replay the image switch in slow motion and you'll see what I mean. Ps I am not an astronomer I just like to watch youtube videos on the subject.

    They make all the shit up, they don't know, and the earth wobbles around the moon as well. They needed an excuse and you should clearly see their "new parrt of the solar system discovery" is their real excuse, so no matter how many lies and half truths they tell to justify the new politics for funding, they will tell them. I just wish Mr Wizard would rise from the grave and punch them all in the nose. Did you notice when fraudster enabler was tellling us Pluto's orbit is 1.5 times the diameter of Neptunes the stupid lying not to scale circles showed perhaps 20% max orbital size differences - it WAY OFF SCALE and orbits are EXTREMELY ELLIPTICAL and the eggheaded liars DO NOT LIKE SHOWING THE TRUTH, God knows why, it's probably too difficult for them it's much easier to produce a perfect circle and drag the center over a notch then mark the graphic done - although that fraud should be contrasted with the endless hours they spend doctoring up Hubble conglomerate B&W pics into glorious artistic renderings the same paid liar callls beautiful over and over again.

    ***** Hjembrent Kent You are both very wrong. Galaxies are small in the night sky but they're actually bigger in our perspective than all of the planets. Look here for some amateur images of galaxies and another section of the forum for their planetary images: stargazerslounge.com/forum/37-imaging-deep-sky/ You'll notice nobody here has imaged pluto. Know why? Jupiter and Saturn are small in the sky but they're also HUGE compared to other planets and expecially pluto. Then take into account pluto is even further away and also smaller than our own moon! Also, a side note: Planets are SO much brighter than galaxies. In the planetary imaging section of that forum you'll see that they use fractions of a second for exposures for planets but 10/20/30 minutes or maybe longer for galaxies or other dso.
