In advance of that historic flyby, the New Horizons mission is sponsoring a scientific meeting to review knowledge of the Pluto System, to inform the planetary science community about the flyby and collaboration/DAP funding opportunities, to discuss and begin to prepare groundbased and spacebased observing proposals, and to provide a venue for scientific predictions.

The workshop is geared towards users that have their own Herschel data as well as those that are new to Herschel but want to do science with the Herschel Archive. We will provide an introduction to the Observatory and the mission, but will focus on the main issues that affect the data, and on how to recognize when the data need to be re-processed. We will also survey the contents of the Archive, including the data that have been produced in the Key and Open Time programs. The workshop will provide beginning users the tools to understand the Archive and start working with Herschel data, and more advanced users with an opportunity to learn about the new capabilities of the Herschel Interactive Processing Environment (HIPE).
