It does look a little like a disco ball doesn't it? But we'll have more detail when New Horizons gets there.

Why do they call them disco balls? Weren't they in use a long while prior to the disco era?

Tell us something.: Been a fluter, citternist, and uilleann piper; committed now to the way of the harp.

Oh, yeah: also a mod here, not a spammer. A matter of opinion, perhaps.

Glitterball. Still not a patch on a proper chandelier.

What is the difference between a glitterball and a mirrorball? Is there a real difference or is it a language thing?

She always creeped me out with her singing, but she did a starring role in a movie called "Vibes" with Jeff Goldblum and Peter Falk in which she was quite good. Some great laughs in this obscure little movie if you're looking for a one-off.
