At NASA Kennedy Space Center’s Payload Hazardous Servicing Facility, the radioisotope thermoelectric generator (RTG) is rolled into the building. Inside the facility, it will be installed in the New Horizons spacecraft for a fit check. The RTG is the baseline power supply for New Horizons, scheduled to launch in January 2006 on a journey to Pluto and its moon, Charon. It is expected to reach Pluto in July 2015.
