<div>Good morning all,</div>
<div> Hope you had a wonderful weekend, I think all spring breaks are over, so we should have everyone happily back to school <font face="Wingdings">J</font> I want to remind everyone of the launch this afternoon....you can watch it live on NASA TV... <a href="http://www.nasa.gov/nasatv"><font color="#0563C1"><b><u>http://www.nasa.gov/nasatv</u></b></font></a>
launch is scheduled for 4:33 pm, Local time...I know most of you will be out of school but hopefully you can show the kids tomorrow as it will be replayed on NASA TV or the SpaceX site... <a href="http://www.bing.com/news/search?q=SpaceX+Launch&qpvt=spacex+launch&FORM=EWRE"><font color="#0563C1"><u>News
about SpaceX Launch</u></font></a> ...they will again attempt to land the booster after the cargo has been deployed on a floating platform which should be interesting....see the link below on New Horizons arrival to Pluto after a 10 year long mission...I know
the kids are fascinated with PLUTO so, when you have a minute, hopefully you can show the how the mission is progressing...everything else is going great here....I’m still contemplating a career change in June to devote full time to school activities...the
best part is I will still be able to remain a part of NASA’s Speakers Bureau so will be able to come to KSC for launches....wishing you all a wonderful day...we have to remember to always do our best, enjoy everything we do, live in the present, let those we
care about most know, be appreciative of the good in our lives, smile & have fun...gabe </div>

of Pluto this summer.</span></font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;">The two briefing event, which is open to the public, will take place in the Webb Auditorium at NASA Headquarters, 300 E Street SW in Washington.</span></font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;">Briefers will describe the mission’s goals, scientific objectives and encounter plans, including the types of images and other data that can be expected and when.</span></font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;">New Horizons will fly past Pluto on July 14. The spacecraft already has covered more than 3 billion miles since it launched on January 19, 2006. It will pass Pluto at a speed of 31,000 mph taking
thousands of images and making a wide range of other science observations. Given the distance between Pluto and Earth, data from the spacecraft during the encounter will take approximately 4.5 hours to reach our planet.</span></font></div>
