One of the first concerns is that it's just so far away. We haven't even been to Mars yet, nor have we even got an unmanned probe to Pluto (yet; there's one on the way). Also, any time an astronaut goes into space, they are bombarded with high energy radiation, that over a long flight to Pluto would kill you.

Mercury, with its small size, forbidding temperatures, and closeness to the sun, has had little attention from space probes. Pluto was visited only once by the space probe, New Horizons, due to its remoteness and because it is so far "above" Earth in the sun's gravitational field.

It would be too cold for humans. We would freeze to death because Pluto has a temperature average about -375-400 degrees below 0. We wouldn't have much sunlight. There is no oxygen on Pluto, so we would suffocate. In addition to all of this, it would take to long to get there.

The main difference is that a manned Mars mission is a great deal longer.


What kind of space shuttle need to take to pluto?

Even if the Shuttles were still operating, which they're not, they wouldn't be able to reach Pluto; no currently existing or planned craft is sufficient for a manned mission to even Jupiter, which is much closer and much more interesting.
