Here with your Tuesday edition of CNN STUDENTNEWS,I'm Carl Azuz.
We've got a lot of ground and water to cover today.
We'll start with news involving a possible ISISrecruitment network. Federal prosecutors say thatsix men from Minneapolis, Minnesota tried to travelto Syria to join the ISIS terrorist group.They werecharged on Monday.
The FBI says it's the clearest evidence so far that some people in the U.S. are being recruitedto join the militant group. Officials believe an American who's already traveled to Syria andjoined ISIS has been trying for months to get his friends from Minnesota to join him.
U.S. officials say the families and friends of the alleged recruits tried several times to interveneand stop them before the FBI finally made the arrests.
5 Things To Know
NASA's New Horizon spacecraft has just sent back its first color photo of Pluto. Five things toknow about the mission.
One, it launched in January of 2006 at a cost of 700 million. New Horizons is expected to passrelatively close to Pluto on July 14, but still more than 7,000 miles away from it.
Two, the spacecraft has a ways to go.But while passing Jupiter snapping photos, it used thatplanet's gravity to speed up and trim its travel time to Pluto by three years.
Three, why Pluto?
Because it's far out, man. Scientists estimate it takes the dwarf planet 248 years to orbit thesun.
Four, the photo shows an orange tinge to the rock and its largest moon. When the craft getscloser, it will take about four and a half hours for its photos to fly back to Earth. More detailedpictures should come in the months ahead.
Five, a bit of history. Pluto was discovered in 1930, but it lost its planetary status in 2006.That's when the International Astronomical Union voted to reclassify Pluto as a dwarf planet.
