A mere 4.3 light years away? That is a long ways, even at 32,000 mph that New Horizon's Space Craft is traveling at. It would require generations of humans and a complete support system that includes a higher degree of education. Now how are you going to do that? Pass the ice cold one.

I would like to see CERES as seen from Dawn Spacecraft in this manner. Those flybys are really informative and poetic. It'd be cool if JPL would put together a collection of flyby movies. That's a CD I would buy! Just out of curiosity, is Comet Haley still outward bound? Pass the ice cold one.
