Great image and article of NASA's work to complete this flyby of Ultima Thule (which is a mysterious object in the Kuiper belt). This object is 4.1 billion miles from Earth. This is the farthest flyby of an object in our solar system every recorded! The mission captured the lst close-up views of a Kuiper Belt object.
