The lost NASA reached Pluto
Automatic interplanetary station "New Horizons", 9 years ago NASA sent to Pluto and at some point the expedition was considered lost in space, reached the most distant planets of the Solar system.

In the foreseeable future, the probe will make the entry into the atmosphere of Pluto and will be able to send to Earth 1-s high quality photos.

Followers of NASA informed that the spacecraft New Horizons was sent to Earth in 2006. After 9 years the ship has reached the goal, and already this week, scientists will be able to evaluate the 1st images of Pluto. As noted in the NASA probe can enter the atmosphere only dwarf planet in the month of July of the current year. The purpose of the apparatus is contained in the study of the atmosphere and the bedrock of Pluto, also, New Horizons will create a map of the plane the furthest planet.

The device is equipped with a camera, spectrometer, detector dust and measuring characteristics of particles of the solar wind should begin remote monitoring Pluto. The probe must do more high-quality images of the planet, and also to test the hypothesis about the presence on Pluto ocean water. With all this, it is noted that NASA may have to adjust its line of movement in case of detection of yet unknown space phone

Interestingly, in addition to modern scientific equipment spacecraft to Pluto moved the remains of the discoverer of the planet Clyde tombo, of United States coins, stamps, flags, and recording the names of people who participate in this program, the news for the followers of extraterrestrial race, reports Russia Today.

Note that the distance to Pluto is 30 times higher than that from the Earth to the Sun, and the spacecraft New Horizons began in early 2006. On your way to the machine flew past Jupiter and Saturn, in the literal sense, rebounding from their orbits, which gave the ship a significant acceleration. Up to this point most distant mission was the flight of the American space ship Voyager, which in 1980 had reached Saturn. How can we tell astronomers, try to see Pluto from Earth can be compared to the observation of peanut nut at a distance of about 50 km
