Almost nine years in space, with most of that time spent in hibernation,
the New Horizons spacecraft woke for its historic flyby of Pluto and Charon
at around Noon Pacific time today!
Congratz! You survived traveling 2 Astronomical Units (or 185,911,615
miles) into space. Send some pics back when you got a chance. :D?

please please the middle ages are over…use kilometer not mile…
nobody on the internet knows how these miles work… and please use
1000 million, not bilion… billion has a different meaning in many
languages…?

Most interesting but don’t hangup phone till you have given the signal that
you have completed your message then the other end gives you a menu and
select how you want it delivered followed by your message has been
delivered and follows again with another menu option and a hangup selection.
I was referring to the image on the table top you have of the Milky Way and
I felt it not such a important feature to deny my usage of it as a image on
my card. What’s you insight, does NASA frown on that Debit Credit Union
card Print usage or not.?

Matt thanks for doing the broadcast it was great to see New Horizons is
awake for it’s encounter, just one thing, you said several times during the
broadcast that it was 30 billion miles that should have been 3 billion!?

This as a waste of time and didn’t meet expectations. I was expecting to
see pluto’s surface and this ended up just a geeky talk show.?

Someone smarter needs to work for The Planetary Society else have Skype
Representative running communications if that is all you want to do. I see
The Planetary Society is using the image I wanted on my Credit Union card
and the National Credit Union refused to allow me to have that one printed
for my Credit Union card. No copyright symbol existed on the original
downloaded from NASA and they claimed it was copyrighted and refused to
allow it.?

Thanks for the stream, saw the signal coming in via DSN. Although i thought
most understood that it was about NH awakening, not sending pictures…
That was quite clear from the getgo.?

I expected to see Pluto and its satellite…?

“some of the factors in the way”…would that be the VA Belt? The well
known newly found glass wall NASA speak about???

Ironic the hosts can’t reach another place on Earth, but were able to reach
the Kuiper Belt.
Loved the Alan Stern interview. What a go getter. Thanks, Alan Stern!?
