The Rosetta probe near the Earth - Rosetta spacecraft over Earth - Artist's view of the passage of the Rosetta probe near the Earth. The purpose of this passage is to use the gravity of the planet to modify the velocity and trajectory of the probe. The Rosetta probe was launched on 2 March 2004 to study comet 67P/Churyumov - Gerasimenko, which it should meet around May 2014. She will put a lander on her surface. Artist's impression of Rosetta spacecraft over Earth. The aim of the transit is to use the planet's gravity to modify the speed and the trajectory of the probe. The European Space Agency spacecraft was launched on March 02 2004 and intended to study the comet 67P/Churyumov - Gerasimenko. Rosetta is expected to enter in orbit around the comet for releasing a lander in May 2014

Artist's view of the New Horizons probe near Pluto - The New Horizons spacecraft near Pluto - Artist's view of the New Horizons probe near Pluto and its largest satellite Charon. The New Horizons probe was launched on 19 January 2006 to Jupiter, then Pluto and Charon, which it will reach in 2015 and Kuiper's objects in 2020. Artist's concept of the New Horizons spacecraft as it approaches Pluto and its largest moon, Charon, in July 2015. The craft's miniature cameras, radio science experiment, ultraviolet and infrared spectrometers and space plasma experiments will characterize the global geology and geomorphology of Pluto and Charon, map their surface compositions and temperatures, and examine Pluto's atmosphere in detail. The spacecraft's most prominent design feature is a nearly 7 - foot (2.1 - meter) dish antenna, through which it will communicate with Earth from as far as 4.7 billion miles (7.5 billion kilometers) away

The New Horizons probe - The New Horizons spacecraft - The New Horizons probe at Nasa's Kennedy Space Center in September 2005. The New Horizons probe was launched on 19 January 2006 to Jupiter, then Pluto and Charon, which it reached in 2015 and Kuiper's objects in 2020. In NASA Kennedy Space Center's Payload Hazardous Servicing Facility, the New Horizons spacecraft is moved toward a work stand (behind it) for a checkout. New Horizons will make the first recognition of Pluto and Charon - a “double planet”” and the last planet in our solar system to be visited by spacecraft. The mission will then visit one or more objects in the Kuiper Belt region beyond Neptune. New Horizons is scheduled to launch in January 2006, swing past Jupiter for a gravity boost and scientific studies in February or March 2007, and reach Pluto and its moon, Charon, in July 2015

The New Horizons probe - The New Horizons spacecraft - The New Horizons probe at Nasa's Kennedy Space Center in December 2005. The New Horizons probe was launched on 19 January 2006 to Jupiter, then Pluto and Charon, which it reached in 2015 and Kuiper's objects in 2020. In the Payload Hazardous Servicing Facility, the New Horizons spacecraft waits for encapsulation within the fairing sections waiting nearby. The fairing protects the spacecraft during launch and flight through the atmosphere. Once out of the atmosphere, the fairing is jettisoned. The compact 1,060 - pound New Horizons probe carries seven scientific instruments that will characterize the global geology and geomorphology of Pluto and its moon Charon, map their surface compositions and temperatures, and examine Pluto's complex atmosphere. After that, flybys of Kuiper Belt objects from even farther in the solar system may be undertaken in an extended mission. New Horizons is the first mission in Nasa's New Frontiers program of medium - class planetary missions. The spacecraft, designed for NASA by the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory in Laurel, Md., will fly by Pluto and Charon as early as summer 2015

James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) - JWST Set for Testing in Space Simulation Chamber: The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) in front of the empty chamber door of Nasa's Johnson Space Center. He'll be locked up for a series of tests. The JWST will replace the Hubble Space Telescope in 2018. Equipped with a 6.5 m mirror, he will observe the universe mainly in infrared. 25 May 2017. Nasa's James Webb Space Telescope sits in front of the door to Chamber A, a giant thermal vacuum chamber located at Nasa's Johnson Space Center. The telescope will soon be moved into the chamber, where it will spend a hot Houston summer undergoing tests at sub-freezing cryogenic temperatures. The telescope will operate at an extremely cold 39 K (-234* C or -389* F) in space, so NASA is simulating those conditions on the ground, ensuring the optics and instruments will perform perfectly after launch. May 25 2017.
