This is the most clearest picture of Pluto ever taken! It was captured recently by the New Horizons planetary probe using itd Ralph imaging instrument. The surface of the dwarf planet is a cool -400 degrees. From this angle it looks like Europa, one of the moons of Jupiter. The red could be copper, the blue could be copper sulphate or cobalt. We will find out more as we explore this dwarf planet on the farthest side of our Solar System even further over the next decade or so.

Our Solar System from Voyager - December 14th, 1996.

"After taking spectacular pictures of our Solar System's outer planets, Voyager 1 looked back at six planets to take our Solar System's first family portrait. Here Venus, Earth, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune were all visible across the sky. Each, however, was just a small speck of light, dimmer than many of the stars in the sky."

Peter Haimerl’s Refurbishment of an Old Farmer’s House in the Bavarian Forest.

Reactivating ailing structures and reinventing their user concepts with a clear idea about the significance of their cultural heritage: For Peter Haimerl who recently won the Bayerischer Staatspreis für Architektur 2018, those guidelines are part of every day live.

“The traditional blockhouses in the Bavarian Forest exhibit a high degree of craftsmanship. That is immediately evident in the detailing of the quoins. After I had studied this building tradition for a long time, I came to recognize that in many cases the houses were not far removed from nature. You can see how thin the layer between nature and culture is.“
