Will it ever be possible to travel to Pluto in a matter on months instead of years?
>>
yes and no

What do you mean?
>>
I think it's possible with modern technology, might take 15-20 years to get there though at our current speed. That would be a long cold ride probably leave that to the Russians they seem to like chilling in space for long periods of time
>>
We could get there, but not in months with our current technology

>inb4 EM drive fanboys

Would take a couple decades as previously said. But I don't see any point in a manned expedition to Pluto. Mars is a good candidate for the sole purpose that it's more feasible/easier to garner public support.
>>
Yes but nobody wants to spend the money to actually use the engines that will get us there.

One-way flyby? Yes.

Going and stopping there?
Maybe 2 years. Depents on the budget tbqh.

Just accelerate up to Uranus orbit at 20 AU and then decelerate the remaining 20 AU until Pluto.
Maybe 30/10 or something since you initially need to move all the fuel you need at a later point of the journey

EM Drive baby.

Easily
It's just a matter of purpose of doing it, and lifting the tonnage for the ship out into space
>>
>>7649093
eventually yes.

right now no
