First high resolution image of Pluto causes concern!

Just received this image via text from my sister-in-law, with the caption "First high resolution image of Pluto causes concern." It was followed by a message explaining that my little brother didn't get it. Oh how I thought Star Wars transcended generations!

Any takers on whether or not kids from the 80s signify a whole other generation, or if the generational divide happened later?

Well...I know my kids treat me in ways I would never have dared treat my dad when I was growing up in the 70's and 80's, sooo...I'm inclined to think that we're a whole other generation.

"I'm afraid this Death Star is quite operational!"
With that said, the generational divide happened later in my opinion. The 80's were my most formative years (I was born in 1974) and I totally get it! Maybe the later 80's, but you had to be pretty much living under a rock to not know what Return of the Jedi was!

Thanks for the post, CW3 Private RallyPoint Member, but SOME of us are NOT surprised.

Some say that Planet Info Wars MAY have obtained UNCONFIRMED information from ANONYMOUS sources that ALLEGE that the "once-was/then-wasn't/now-is-it? 'planet'" is not QUITE operational (sorry, PO1 John Miller, and it is UNCONFIRMED...). They're waiting for a shipment of "special" fuel from Iran...

I found this picture of it. It must be on the back side.
