NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft successfully completed
a flyby of Jupiter early this morning, using the
massive planet’s gravity to pick up speed on its
3-billion mile voyage to Pluto and the unexplored
Kuiper Belt region beyond.

“We’re on our way to Pluto,” says New Horizons Mission
Operations Manager Alice Bowman, of the Johns Hopkins
University Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) in Laurel,
Md. “The swingby was a success; the spacecraft is on
course and performed just as we expected.”
