This 1,054 pound (478 kg), piano-sized spacecraft, which launched in January 2006, sped away from the Earth at a blistering pace of 36,000 miles per hour (almost 58,000 kilometers per hour).

 Piano sized? Would that be an upright, baby grand, or grand piano? Idiots.

That is the size of New Horizons.The spacecraft is comparable in size and general shape to a grand piano and has been compared to a “piano glued to a sports-car-sized satellite dish
