New Horizon, an interplanetary space probe, is on its way to the far reaches to our universe to check out Pluto. When it finally arrives, a big surprise awaits – a large part of Pluto’s surface is covered by a planet-sized heart! 

Sparse on text, but oh so cute – I had no idea that Pluto has a giant heart on its surface! A great introduction to space science – and sure to bring up lots of possible research questions.
