Great Space Events in 2019

Some fine space events to come by 2019! 2019, as soon as Jan. 1, 2019 will see the most remarkable feat that a man-made proble will reach a Kuiper Belt Object (KBO) for the first time. That will be NASA's New Horizons, that mission which already had been the first planetary mission ever to reach at Pluto by 2015, which is to reach KBO 2014 MU69! 2019 then, at some equality of importance, is the 50th anniversary of NASA's Apollo 11 mission which landed the first humans at Moon by July, 20th 1969! The celebrations of the Apollo 9 and 10 will also occur. During a period spanning through December 2022, generally NASA will mark the 50th anniversary of all the missions of the Apollo Program. Apart from that, 2019 will have U.S. missions working at Mars like InSight or Curiosity as NASA will try to re-establish contact with the Opportunity rover which lacked transmitting since a large dust storm in 2018. 2019 is also a year of asteroidal studies with NASA's OSIRIS-REx working at asteroid Benu and Japanese JAXA's Hayabusa-2 at Ryugu. NASA's DAWN, as far as it is concerned, should be terminated for cause of lack of fuel, at Ceres! Several European ESA's missions at last, are announced like launching by 2019
