New Horizons half way to Pluto

It's been my conjecture, for most of the five years that New Horizons has been on it's journey out to Pluto, that NASA is really going to check out what might be lurking in deep space.  Who knows, there might be some more interesting revelations that will be disbursed if more stories like this one from Before It's News are brought to our attention.The facts are starting to indicate there is a brown dwarf out there beyond Pluto.  Of course the significance of such a finding, which we will see more evidence of (or not), is the planet Nibiru/Nemesis/Planet X theories swirling around in all their glory.  Could they be of merit after all?  Ahh, sci-fi can really be interesting, but when it starts to ride that crest of reality, the ante balloons.

From NASA:


July 14, 2010
Five Years and Counting DownFive years ago, the New Horizons spacecraft was in a thermal-vacuum chamber at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, Maryland, being tested for our historic voyage to the planetary frontier. Today our intrepid probe is a billion kilometers past Saturn – and exactly five years away from closest Pluto approach on July 14, 2015.
Thanks to everyone for the hard work, dedication, persistence, and sheer pluck that got us funded, built, launched and halfway across the solar system. We aren't "turning final" on approach yet, but we can see that day coming in early 2015. Go New Horizons!
