JUST GOT WORD FROM THE KUIPER BELT, New Horizons sent a GREEN BEACON! All’s well way out there. And this was our last beacon until long after flyby when downlink finishes in 2020. We wake the bird up from hibernation to start flyby preps next week! GO NEW HORIZONS! pic.twitter.com/ODg7JGPIjN

The LONG hibernation for New Horizons is ending! Yes, tonight we'll take our bird out of its almost 6-month long hibernation and into active ops to begin flyby preps for Ultima Thule at New Years day 2019! GO NEW HORIZONS! #PlutoFlyby pic.twitter.com/tFnkbK8s6b
