There's a number of live streams happening on YouTube right now regarding this. Here's a BBC article.

The first “smudge” taken of Pluto was in 1996, and 19 years later we had an HD image.

Only watch if you have the full 30 minutes, truly amazing. Filmmaker creates time lapse of the universe. Such sources and voices heard throughout include David Attenborough, Craig Childs, Brian Cox , Neil deGrasse Tyson, Janna Levin and others.
Anything with David Attenborough,Brian Cox and Neil Tyson in it is significant, the others in this are very important.

On Tuesday, the official, verified Twitter account of the Indian Army's Additional Directorate General of Public Information tweeted a picture of what it claimed were Yeti tracks in the snow. "For the first time, an Indian Army mountaineering expedition team has sited (sic) mysterious footprints of mythical beast Yeti,"

I saw that this morning on my twitter alerts and was debating posting it or not. It just might be an enormous fat guy walking to the store.

NASA is warning that meteors pose a major threat to Earth, so agencies are already testing out ways to defend against them by using lasers or by ramming spacecraft into them.
