New Horizons

[[Two people stand at a mission control terminal.]] One: We made it! After all these years, New Horizons is finally revealing the surface of Pluto! Two: Take that , Dawn team. [[On the black screen, a small grayish circle appears.]] [[It grows slightly larger, and a differentiation of colors can be seen, white and gray.]] [[Larger still, now landmasses and water are visible.]] [[It is now large enough to see that we are looking at the Earth, with Africa, Europe, and some of Asia visible.]] [[One person is still looking at the screen while the other is walking away.]] One: Ok, who did the calculations for the Jupiter slingshot maneuver? Two: Dammit, Steve... {{Title text: Last-minute course change: Let's see if we can hit Steve's house.}}
