Missing the Space Prn?

This montage of images of Jupiter and its volcanic moon Io was taken by the New Horizons spacecraft’s flyby in early 2007. The Jupiter visualise is an infrared alter composite taken by the spacecraft’s near-infrared imaging spectrometer on Feb. 28. 2007. The infrared wavelengths used bring out variations in the altitude of the Jovian cloud tops with blue denoting high-altitude clouds and hazes and red indicating deeper clouds. The prominent bluish-white oval is the Great Red Spot.
The Io visualise taken on March 1. 2007 is a nearly true-color composite. The visualise shows a study eruption in develop on Io’s night side at the northern volcano Tvashtar. Incandescent lava glows red beneath a high volcanic plume whose uppermost portions are illuminated by sunlight. The cheat appears color due to scattering of lighten by small particles in the cheat.

Have you heard anything more on this “New Earth” planet they found 20 light years away. I think you posted on it last month?
