NASA’s New Horizon spacecraft left Earth in 2006 and is quickly approaching its fly-by of the icy dwarf plant and its moons. Its closest approach will occur …
I am so sad that scientists must wait for too long to have funds for such
exploration and study and then with limited funds to wait for so long to
get spacecraft to it’s destination. Every government on this world should
focus more on exploration of other worlds instead of pesky conflicts.?
Can’t wait to see the first images. For those of us who were not around in
the 60s and 70s, this is the nearest thing to seeing Mars or Jupiter close
up for the first time.?

mars….wow they were lucky to live i a time where you could be so
optimistic.?

As a kid who grown up during late 80s, i still say Pluto is a “PLANET”
rather than a some “rock” on kuiper belt.?
