mission to pluto

so they're going to send a rocket to Pluto, a journey that will take nine years. Pretty staggering, huh? It'll be powered by Plutonium fuel, which is being protested. Apparently someone said a teaspoonful of Plutonium can kill millions, how true this is I don't know. Stuff like this does frighten me for a variety of reasons.

On another note, Pluto's moon is named Charon. Is that the same as Chiron? Cool name, anyhow.
