Some of you may know, I recently launched a new “Ask” feature over at Universe Today.
The inaugural launch features Dr. Alan Stern, Principal Investigator for the New Horizons mission to Pluto and the Kuiper Belt. I collected questions from UT readers in the initial post and passed them along to Dr. Stern who graciously took the time to answer them.
You can check out Dr Stern’s responses to the reader questions at: http://www.universetoday.com/92028/dr-alan-stern-answers-your-questions/
Thanks to everyone who helped make this kick-off a success. Stay tuned next month for the next installment with Expedition 29 Commander, Mike Fossum.
