Looks like MU69 is getting a nomenclature upgrade; it's being referred to as Ultimate Thule now. A billion miles outbound from Pluto, it will be the most distant and primitive object ever explored.
Flyby still on track for New Horizons 1/1/19.
BTW, despite great cameras, MU69 is still invisible to New Horizons. The flyby is being planned and organized so far with images from the Hubble Space Telescope. They expect the new Horizons cameras to start registering MU69 around this September.

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
