FloridaToday: "Equipped with an electrical generator fueled by 24 pounds of plutonium, NASA's New Horizons spacecraft is scheduled to blast off from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station between 1:24 p.m. and 3:23 p.m. on the world's first mission to explore Pluto.
Government studies show there is a one in 350 chance of a launch accident that would trigger a release of radioactive plutonium."
The repeated launching delays show that there was a definite risk. As usual the mainstream media did not report the protest or the danger.
