Creation Moment 10/10/2021 - Pluto's Atmosphere

Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God,...
Hebrews 11:3
 
"Pluto’s atmosphere is freezing onto the surface again as its orbit
takes it farther from the sun. How many times has this happened?

Scientists at Southwest Research Institute watched Pluto occult a star on the night of August 18, 2021. This allowed them to measure the height and density of Pluto’s thin atmosphere. The press release says:

Like Earth, Pluto’s atmosphere is predominantly nitrogen.


Unlike Earth, Pluto’s atmosphere is supported by the vapor pressure of its surface ices, which means that small changes in surface ice temperatures would result in large changes in the bulk density of its atmosphere. Pluto takes 248 Earth years to complete one full orbit around the Sun, and its distance varies from its closest point, about 30 astronomical units from the Sun (1 AU is the distance from the Earth to the Sun), to 50 AU from the Sun
.

If Pluto is 4.5 billion years old, simple division shows that it would have orbited the sun over 18 million times by now. This implies that the atmosphere has warmed and frozen that many times, too.

This is the kind of question space scientists never ask. Is it credible that the atmosphere at Pluto has undergone 18 million cycles of warming and refreezing and still have some left today? ......18 million orbits should have depleted a significant volume of gas." CEH
