The 2015 New Horizons mission to Pluto marked a historic achievement, providing unprecedented images of the dwarf planet and its five moons. The spacecraft unveiled a reddish surface featuring ice-water mountains, moving glaciers, and potential ice volcanoes, suggesting an underground ocean. These findings indicate that Pluto is not a static body, but rather geologically active and evolving, transforming our understanding of this distant world.
