      getting to pluto would be very difficult. you would need a spacecraft and it takes 9-10 years to get there with current technology. Pluto itself is really cold, as it is so far away from the Sun, but if we could get there, we should be also able to figure out how to protect ourselves from the cold.

      You would probably die before getting to pluto with just a spacesuit, since there is nothing you can push yourself with to go in that direction and plus its really far away! And as christina said, its very cold out there and space is already beyond freezing so that would also have an impact.
