NASA's New Horizons spacecraft awakens from yearlong hibernation to do unprecedented science beyond Pluto
SMRTR summary
NASA's New Horizons spacecraft has woken up after nearly a year of hibernation, about 5.9 billion miles from Earth. Now fully operational, it will study the outer edge of the solar system where the sun's influence ends and interstellar space begins. Its advanced instruments will eventually collect far more detailed data about this boundary than the older Voyager probes ever could.
