That brave little probe will be the harbinger of doom when it awakens the plutonians from stasis and they hear all the mean nasty things us humans have said about Pluto not being a real planet. They'll switch off the artificial gravity and send Charon speeding across the solar system on a crash course with Earth.

Do It Once Right posted:holy poo poo, I read trillion as billion. However, there's no political-problem in making GBS threads out a lot of funding to defence contractors and often what happens is they'll tell a company, say SGT Inc., to hire [x] person who will all the government clearance just like a NASA employee and effectively is but they get paid ~100-200k/yr through the company. And then there is usually a direct labor multiplier of 2-4 so they then rebill the government for 200k-800k/yr for that employee to work, so it pretty much costs the government a lot more to do this but its the only politically tenable route. This gets funded through different budgets so it looks like NASA's direct labor budget is piss poor (which it is) Xaris fucked around with this message at 17:56 on Jun 24, 2015 |

Our probe desecrating their sacred sky will piss of the Plutonians, but do not fear they will not attack us because they will decide the money is better spent feeding Pluto's children.
