or the ability to reach Pluto ??

Pluto..a cinch. Just go to Disneyland and wander around you are bound to find Pluto. You an even hug him if you like!
The center of the Earth well that's hundreds, if not thousands of years in the future. The heat and the pressure of molten iron (although at the exact center of the earth one would be in an anti gravity environment..like in outer space, because the mass of the earth is pulling on you exactly the same from all points around you). The heat and pressure are unimaginable and it will take man many many generations to solve this problem. We might just send a probe there..why risk a human being. Androids will like molten iron...they can relate to it..right!

Pluto - we already have the technology to start reaching other planets, it's just a matter of figuring out how to modify that to sustain life long enough to reach Pluto and then have some way of returning to Earth. Reaching the center of the earth is trickier because it seems like it would be much harder to develop a material that could resist the temperatures and pressures found in the center of the earth.

The ability to reach Pluto. The intense heat and pressures of the Earth's core are much more of a challenge than the cold, vaccum of space.

Pluto, much tougher to deal with the high pressure and temperatures trying to reach the center of the Earth.

We've already been to Pluto....the Voyager deep space probe passed it years ago. The technology to send humans there already exists, its just too expensive.
Physically reaching thecentre of the Earth is not possible with current technology. Doesn't mean it'll never happen though. Maybe we'll find someway to cut through the Earth using lasers, and find away of shielding a probe from the heat...

Actually it would be easier to get closer to the core of the earth as I read an article of a science experiment done back in the 1940's. The crust of the earth is 50 miles thick but in some areas in the ocean, the crust is only one mile thick according to Jacques Cousteau (famous french diver).
Apparently someone even found fire breathing vents on the bottom of the ocean floor they believe was coming from the core. The also took a temperature of 12,000 degrees! But I don't know what experiment that was. Different people have done experiments over the years.

It would defiantly be the ability to reach Pluto.

Probably the center of the earth. If a machine that would keep it's inhabitants safe from the heat of the core, could b built it would b relatively easy to reach the core.
But currently it is unknown how to safely send a human being into deep space, as of now it is unknown how to send a human to even Mars which is only 1 planet away.

Pluto- Pluto just need time. center of earth have to have shielding and not screw up the rest of the world.
