But it is preferable

I can't believe it took us so long to find that out. It was just a few pixels for the longest time.

Some are probably pretty interesting, we should find out for sure.

ACTUAL SCIENCE QUESTIONS
1. When the probe takes all those measurements in rapid succession, is it just running through a simple roll,pitch,yaw,time schedule or is it a more advanced program based on image recognition? I'm guessing a bit of both. But basically, if pluto explodes right now, will it still take all those pictures as if nothing happened?

2. Why have they configured the trajectory so that both pluto and charon will eclipse the sun if (according to the preview) It's just going to be sending data at that time
