Nuclear power battery (Score: 1) by tanuki64@pipedot.org on 2014-12-07 15:36 (#2VPF) I am happy to read that New Horizons has a nuclear power battery: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Horizons#PowerOk, hard to go without one in that kind of mission, but when I read this:Less than the original design goal was produced, due to delays at the United States Department of Energy, including security activities, which held up production.I am sure the uneducated mobocracy tried its best to throw a monkey wrench into the works.

It may have simply been a run-of-the-mill bureaucracy incapable of producing any other result.
