New Horizons Probe slings by Jupiter

NASA's New Horizon's Pluto-Kuiper belt probe has done its closest approach and fly-by of Jupiter yesterday at 12:43 am EST, taking advantage of Jupiter's gravity as a speed assist to shave off 3-years on the way to Pluto in 2015.

It also passed by very close to some of Jupiter's moons and took close photos of IO and Europa. I am sure those photos will gbe awesome and should be published in the days to come. Can't wait to see them.

You can see details and on the New Horizons Pluto Mission website.
