A cold icy rock floating in space somewhere between planet and comet, Pluto has now come into the light. Before July, this dwarf planet had been a blurry dot on our Earth-based detectors. After at nine year journey, the New Horizons Spacecraft has finally made it to the Pluto system and sent back some amazing discoveries. Omega Smith will talk about our new view of Pluto and what it can tell us about how our solar system formed.
