16. Why haven't we found a way to get there yet? (A K2S Question)
From The Space Library
We hope to send a robot spacecraft to Pluto in 2006. It is already built and is being tested right now. Sending humans would be very difficult because of the huge amount of fuel needed, and the very long journey time—20 years or more to get there and back.
