Its utlimate destination, which it will reach in aproximately 10 years, is Pluto, the last planet we have not sent some sort of probe to. Along with exploring Pluto, NASA also plans to collect data about the belt of ice and other debris that Pluto exists in. __________________ 'He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.' -TJ
