Clever new observations of Pluto as it passed in front of a distant star reveal that the planet's thin atmosphere has cooled over the past 14 years while the surface seems to be getting warmer.
They said the results could only be fully explained by a robotic mission to Pluto, a project many astronomers are lobbying for but which NASA has put on the back burner.
Pluto is too far away for astronomers to make direct observations of the atmosphere, which is thought to involve mere wisps of gas that may completely freeze out in coming years as Pluto moves travels farther from the Sun.

 Project Pluto
This research became known as "Project Pluto" and was moved from Livermore, California to new facilities constructed for $1.2 million on eight square miles (21 km²) of Jackass Flats at the Nevada Test Site (NTS), known as Site 401.
Indeed, some questioned whether a cruise missile derived from Project Pluto would need a warhead at all; the radiation from its engine, coupled with the shock wave that would be produced by flying at Mach 3 at treetop level, would have left a wide path of destruction wherever it went.
But despite these and other successful tests the Pentagon, sponsor of the "Pluto project," had second thoughts; Intercontinental ballistic missile technology had proved to be more easily developed than previously thought, reducing the need for such highly capable cruise missiles.

Actually, the radiation concern with Pluto was not so much the exhaust plume as the direct radiation from a totally unshielded half-gigawatt reactor.
It was a serious project in the late 1950s and early 1960s, undertaken partly as a hedge against the possibility that ballistic missiles would quickly become vulnerable to defences.

 The Atmosphere of Pluto   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
The project was organised by G.L. Blow of Carter Observatory, Wellington, N.Z. A simultaneous observation was made by the Kuiper Airborne Observatory.
On 9 June 1988 a small star passed behind Pluto as seen from Australia and New Zealand, and various observatories in these countries measured the intensity of the starlight as this event (called an occultation) proceeded.
If Pluto had no atmosphere (like the Moon) we would expect the starlight to 'snuff' out suddenly as the star passed instantaneously behind the planet, but if an atmosphere existed, then it should slowly darken the starlight as it passed through an increasing thickness of air.

The article discusses Project Pluto, a nuclear-powered, unmanned supersonic ramjet bomber that would have rained hydrogen bombs along its flight path.
Along the way, Pluto would have spewed radioactive particles, and its hypersonic shock waves would have been strong enough to kill people on the ground -- a true doomesday weapon if there ever was one.
Not only was the necessary technology unavailable at the time, but its developers realized that Pluto would have to fly over US and allied territory in order to reach its targets, making it a threat to friend and foe alike.
