Really, water ice? I assumed we were talking about methane "ice" or something else.

That is Pluto's moon Charon; not Pluto. Here's Pluto:

What the mission team did have in hand Tuesday morning was a new image of Pluto’s peach-colored face, taken the night before, at a resolution of 4 kilometers per pixel, 1000 times better than images from the Hubble Space Telescope. Exellent post SeekAndFind, thank you.

I thought they blew off Pluto as a planet a few years ago... Or am I wrong?

For a couple of weeks I was afraid they were not going to get any really good photos of Pluto. Those they were showing were blurry.
They finally ended up being really clear.
I read a discussion on whether Pluto should be called a planet or not and I think the best argument was that it should be.

crater-free and therefore relatively young,How do they know it is young? Is it possible there are fewer asteroids and crap flying around that far out in the solar system?

Pluto is most likely where the climate deniers are hiding the climate.

Wait a minute. Methane??? Methane is an evyil hydrocarbon. A fossil fuel even. And we all know methane is caused by evyil cow farts. Who is raising cattle on Pluto? Probably evyil McDonalds clear cut the entire planet for hamburger meat.
SAVE PLUTO!!!

All these oddities in our solar system are going to need a really simple explanation covering all of them. Right now the problems keep multiplying, while explanations become more convoluted and complex.
Easiest explanation to date: Once the solar system had only large gas giants with many moons. Something happened - maybe more than once (400 mya and 200 mya). Now only four remain - Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune. Positions and distributions of the bodies were changed; now all other bodies, no matter their current classification, are simply escaped moons.

Before this mission the temp on Pluto was believed to be near -400. Have they said if they still think that is correct?
