On July 19, the Museum celebrates one of the longest journeys in spaceflight history, as NASA’s New Horizon spacecraft arrives at Pluto after a 9-year trip through the solar system. A special speaker program featuring Alan Boyle, award winning science writer and author of “The Case For Pluto” and Ron Hobbs, NASA/JPL Solar System Ambassador will examine the probe's wealth of discoveries about the distant, dwarf planet.
