Has a probe ever landed on Pluto?

No is the clear answer and not much would survive there either as it is SO cool on Pluto (minus 240 degrees) It is so far way too that solar panels would probably not pick up enough of the suns light and heat to function correctly A probe is due there in 2015 on New Horizons which left earth in 2006 and it will fly near to or past Pluto and its moons and get much needed close pictures of the dwarf planet and its moons

Can you find Pluto in the sky at night or in the morning?

It's currently near the constellation Sagittarius. During the spring it will be in the sky in the morning, in the summer will be up all night, in the fall it will be up in the evening, and during the winter, it will only be up during the day. However, you will need a pretty good telescope to see it, Pluto's quite faint.
