EVENTS on this day:

1978 Emden, Germany – The last German-made Volkswagen Beetle left the VW plant, but production continued in Latin America, until 2003.

It passed Jupiter on February 28, 2007, and Saturn’s orbit on June 8, 2008. It arrived at Pluto on July 14, 2015, and became the first spacecraft to study the planet Pluto and its moons, Charon, Nix, Hydra. It has since continued into the Kuiper Belt, to study various bodies there.
