On Jun 30 – Jul 1 Venus and Jupiter will be in close conjunction, less than 1 degree apart. This animation about the conjunction has been created using the screenshot feature of TheSkyLive.com Planetarium (press ‘p’ key to create a screenshot).
Latest image of Pluto from New Horizons LORRI instrument, taken from a distance of 20.6M km. Original images have been enlarged and processed in order to increase contrast and sharpness. Features similar to craters appear, however there is still some uncertainty caused by possible processing artifacts.

Based on the resolution of this image (410 meters per pixel) this impact Crater on Ceres has a diameter of approximately 150Km! The original image captured by the Dawn Framing Camera has been enhanced to improve contrast and enhance details. Image credits: NASA/JPL-Caltech/UCLA/MPS/DLR/IDA
This image was taken in June 10 by the Dawn probe, from a distance of 4400 kilometers. The original image, available here, has been processed in order to improve contrast and enhance the surface details. Image Credits: NASA/JPL-Caltech/UCLA/MPS/DLR/IDA
Latest processed image of Pluto, received on Jun 25 and taken from a distance of 22.9M km by the New Horizons spacecraft. There might be some processing artifacts caused by enlarging and sharpening.

Latest Pluto image from New Horizons, processed with only minimal sharpening applied. Enhanced background contrast to reveal few stars on the background. Distance is now 26 million kilometers. Image credit: NASA/Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory/Southwest Research Institute
New processed image of Pluto and Charon, from the latest New Horizons releases on Jun 22, 2015. This image is the result of combining 4 different images, taken from a distance of 26.8M km. Image credit: NASA/Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory/Southwest Research Institute
Processed image of Ceres bright spot, from image received from Dawn on Jun 22nd. Processing was done in order to increase contrast which was pretty low in the original image. Image credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/UCLA/MPS/DLR/IDA
