We’ve reached Pluto!

What a week this will be in the history books! The Greek deal, the Iran Agreement, and now Pluto, the dwarf planet.

It began with the Greeks accepting what amounted to an ultimatum from the rest of Europe on the debt deal. This marked a major milestone in the story of European integration.

Then came the Iran Agreement which may become historic in a bad way as it may ignite an arms race in the region particularly since at the last minute the western powers caved and removed the embargo on missles.

Last New Horizons flew by Pluto returning the images the animation is based upon.

No, we are not becoming a current events blog; this was just a special week where events were in fact historic.
