Would a mission to Eris be possible? Is anybody talking about it? |

Trouble ahead? http://www.space.com/missionlaunches/06113...ons_update.html This problem worries me: QUOTE One nagging engineering issue has already been flagged. New Horizons is using two of its 16 thrusters more than expected, Stern said. “So we’re going to have to limit our appetite and learn to fly the spacecraft a little bit differently…or we’ll use them all up before we get to Pluto.” |

Alan Stern isn't too happy about all this. See this article: http://www.space.com/scienceastronomy/0608...definition.html |

The chance of the weather srubbing the launch on Wednesday is currently set at 30% (today, Tuesday was set at 20%). Thursday's chance of a scrub due to weather is only 10%. See: http://www.floridatoday.com/floridatoday/blogs/plutolaunch/ |
