Hello New Horizons team! Congratulations on a successful mission and thanks for doing this AMA. I’m so excited to see these images for the first time because I was born a few years after the Voyager II photos came in. I made this for everyone here!

Question 1: Can you talk about the snow on Pluto? If I were standing on the surface in a spacesuit while it was snowing, what might it look like?

Question 2: If you were to send a probe to Pluto, would it be a lander or rover, and is there a feature that pops out as a desirable landing site?

Who do you think will get to Mars first? NASA, another country, multiple countries together, or a private company like SpaceX?

Hi Steve! I was fortunate enough to get a Mac Plus in 1987, and it lit a spark in me that never died. Last year, I finally got my degree in electrical engineering. So thanks for taking part in that.

These days, kids are using devices all day. They even allow them in many schools. Do you think our society is moving away from the outdoors, and more toward everyone being connected? How do you think this will affect future generations?

Is it hard to fall asleep in microgravity? Do you get crazy dreams? Do you ever wake up startled because you forgot you were in space?
