Matt Perkins, President of Space Imaging comments as e2v technology makes history capturing the first ever close-up pictures of Pluto

Matt Perkins, President of Space Imaging at e2v, commented, “At e2v we are overwhelmed to once again see our technology make history as our image sensors captured the first ever close-up pictures of Pluto. After travelling over three billion miles, our bespoke technology produced these glorious images that will help the science community discover more about this dwarf-planet and learn more about the origins of our solar system. As the only UK Company with significant involvement in the mission, we are proud of the part we have played and look forward to seeing what else our sensors discover as we receive more pictures over the coming months”
