the news people have been downplaying the true mission purpose but that is definitely some kind of laser, or photon torpedo launcher.

about time we get a little bang for all the money spent on space conquest

Indeed, it is. To be precise, it is a dwarf planet. And it is the second-largest of the dwarf planets, after Eris.

Third largest because if we're going to take the definition the Pluto haters made up to exclude Pluto at face value then earth is also a dwarf planet.
