- 19:22:58 Retweeted @NASAWatch 19:22:16 Spencer – first time we have seen an icy world that is not orbiting a planet where they are shaped by tidal heating. Not here #plutflyby
- 19:25:10 Retweeted @BadAstronomer 19:24:36 Pluto has mountains of water ice, coated with thin surface of methane and nitrogen ice. Alien world indeed.
- 19:25:37 Retweeted @cbs_spacenews 19:24:51 NH/Pluto: New Horizons shows small icy worlds can be active without tidal heating. Intriguing discovery.
- 19:25:45 Retweeted @NASAWatch 19:25:04 Stern:steep topography means that bedrock must be made of water ice #plutoflyby
- 19:27:54 Retweeted @marsroverdriver 19:27:03 Pluto is losing atmosphere at the rate of tons/second. So there's internal activity that's dredging stuff up. (No geysers seen yet, though.)
- 19:28:42 Retweeted @owillis 19:27:39 just once i want us to do a planetary survey and the press conference goes "we found a structure. we dont know what it is. it isnt natural."

- 19:33:56 Retweeted @marsroverdriver 19:33:39 Scientists, when they say, "We have no idea at this point," sound excited. Not embarrassed, excited. That's science in a nutshell.
- 19:42:20 Retweeted @DrMRFrancis 19:42:01 Big surprises: no craters in close-up on Pluto, mountains (maybe volcanoes) on Pluto, amazingly young surface on Charon. #PlutoFlyby
- 20:30:24 Retweeted @SungrazerComets 20:30:03 Stick lots of comets together, create a Pluto? Stick lots of Plutos together, create a planet? Maybe! It all had to glue together somehow.
