New Horizons: Overview
New Horizons was one of the consortia proposals submitted for AO-OSS-01, NASA’s request for flyby mission proposals to Pluto-Charon and the Kuiper Belt.
New Horizons was selected by NASA on 29 Nov 2001.
The Senate and House funded New Horizons to enter full-scale development in their FY03 NASA bill. President Bush signed this funding bill on 20 Feb 2003.
New Horizons is now in Phase C/D and designated New Frontiers 1.
