The probe launched January 1st 2006 took a leisurely stroll through our solar system and finally reaching Pluto on July 14th 2015.

NASA teamed up with Facebook’s Instagram to unveil Pluto’s surface photo with 318k likes and 12.1k comments on this photo alone, but NASA didn’t stop there: Their Social Media Campaigns on Twitter and Facebook also brought in the crowds.

With Twitter trending hashtags like #PlutoFlyby and #Pluto bringing in over 502k tweets. Facebook garnered a lot of attention too; NASA’s Picture Show Post of Pluto earned 24k likes, 4800 shares and 280k views.

I think we all can say New Horizon was not only a successful mission, but also a social media success for NASA. Remnant of NASA’s Golden era, where everyone was glued to their T.V’s, they’ve got us back![/fusion_text][/fullwidth][fullwidth backgroundcolor=”” backgroundimage=”” backgroundrepeat=”no-repeat” backgroundposition=”left top” backgroundattachment=”scroll” video_webm=”” video_mp4=”” video_ogv=”” video_preview_image=”” overlay_color=”” overlay_opacity=”0.5″ video_mute=”yes” video_loop=”yes” fade=”no” bordersize=”0px” bordercolor=”” borderstyle=”” paddingtop=”20px” paddingbottom=”20px” paddingleft=”0px” paddingright=”0px” menu_anchor=”” equal_height_columns=”no” hundred_percent=”no” class=”” id=””][slider width=”100%” height=”100%” class=”” id=””][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”yes”]https://www.dpom.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Pluto_Discovery-1930-300×253.jpg[/slide][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”yes”]https://www.dpom.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/pluto-and-charon-1994-300×156.jpg[/slide][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”yes”]https://www.dpom.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Pluto-1996-march-300×208.jpg[/slide][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”yes”]https://www.dpom.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/2003-pluto-300×147.jpg[/slide][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”yes”]https://www.dpom.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/pluto-2011-300×167.jpg[/slide][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”yes”]https://www.dpom.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/april-2015-pluto.jpg[/slide][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”yes”]https://www.dpom.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/May-27-2015-pluto-300×225.jpg[/slide][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”yes”]https://www.dpom.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/June-11-2015-pluto-300×225.jpg[/slide][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”yes”]https://www.dpom.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/july-8-2015-pluto-300×300.png[/slide][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”yes”]https://www.dpom.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/july-10-2015-pluto-300×300.png[/slide][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”yes”]https://www.dpom.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/july-13-2015-pluto-300×169.jpg[/slide][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”yes”]https://www.dpom.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/july-14-2015-pluto-300×300.png[/slide][/slider][/fullwidth][fullwidth backgroundcolor=”” backgroundimage=”” backgroundrepeat=”no-repeat” backgroundposition=”left top” backgroundattachment=”scroll” video_webm=”” video_mp4=”” video_ogv=”” video_preview_image=”” overlay_color=”” overlay_opacity=”0.5″ video_mute=”yes” video_loop=”yes” fade=”no” bordersize=”0px” bordercolor=”” borderstyle=”” paddingtop=”20px” paddingbottom=”20px” paddingleft=”0px” paddingright=”0px” menu_anchor=”” equal_height_columns=”no” hundred_percent=”no” class=”” id=””][fusion_text]
