During the summer of 2015, the New Horizon space probe provided the first fly by images of the dwarf planet Pluto. The NASA engineers were amazed to see mountains as high as 3,500 meters displayed across the icy surface. They also observed a canyon that is 7 to 9 kilometers deep. One of the most amazing things about the entire massion was the ability of a space probe, about the size of a piano to travel the enormous distance to the Kuiper Belt object. Which of the following distances best reflects the distance the New Horizon traveled from Earth to Pluto?

A= 32.63 astronomical units

B= 4.67 Light years

C= 7 million kilometers

D= 600,000 miles
