After NASA's New Horizons was unable to find icy Kuiper Belt objects, now The Hubble Space Telescope will he helping the NASA's New Horizons in their mission beyond Pluto.

The New Horizons failed in its first attempt as the objects were extensively spread out and were quite hard to detect. Now, when the Hubble has made an entry, it has started using 40 orbits to observe far-off objects-destinations for the New Horizon's spacecraft, which currently is around 290 miles from Pluto.

"I am pleased that our science peer-review process arrived at a consensus as to how to effectively use Hubble's unique capabilities to support the science goals of the New Horizons mission", said Matt Mountain, Director of the Space Telescope Science Institute in Maryland.

Though New Horizons was finalized for the mission to study Kuiper Belt Objects (KBO's), the team did not have ability to detect the objects. Principle investigator of New Horizons, Alan Stern said now the Hubble coming to help the New Horizons.

If it gets successful then New Horizons' spacecraft could approach the object between 2016 and 2021. Experts said the Hubble Space Telescope will be looking out for the objects in the conditions that are difficult to manage.

Ray Villard, a Hubble spokesman, was of the view that the process seems to be like a fishing trip as it requires the telescope to spend 40 orbits looking for objects. Then, another 160 objects are required to analyze the area.

Therefore, out of 200 objects, they have a 95% chance of finding one or more KBOs. Hubble has been used to support exploration of our solar system.
