The switch also means that science observations are resuming, and it should not be long before fresh images of the dwarf planet and its entourage of moons starts popping up again. “In that same time, our unmanned space missions have been even more successful, and the New...

NASA noted that the spots are evenly spaced and most appear to have a rough diameter of 480 kilometers (300 miles). But nobody knows what the are.
