This app has everything about the New Horizons mission. Can't wait for 2015, until then I'll track the mission with this app.

Boy this driving to Pluto thing really bites; sure wish I hitched a ride around a planet or two with New Horizons on its way to Pluto.
Good App

Latest rev was working until a week ago. Now selecting "Countdown" shuts off the app.
