From Pluto with Love!❤️This image of Pluto from New Horizons’ Long Range Reconnaissance Imager (LORRI) was received on 8 July, and has been combined with lower-resolution colour information from the Ralph instrument. The image was taken on 7 July, when the spacecraft was just under 5 million miles (8 million kilometres) from Pluto, and is the first to be received since the 4 July anomaly that sent the spacecraft into safe mode.
