Sep 27, 2005 NASA's New Horizons Spacecraft has arrived at Florida's Cape Canaveral to be prepared for launch. If all goes well, New Horizons will lift off atop an Atlas V rocket on January 11, 2006, and begin the decade-long journey to Pluto. It's equipped with seven scientific instruments, and will study Pluto and its Moon Charon during a relatively brief flyby. The mission may even be extended, giving the Spacecraft an opportunity to study additional objects in the region.
