A quick calculation suggests 80,560 yr.
All the planets in our solar system are roughly coplanar, Alpha Centauri is far outside this plane, so indeed, Pluto is in the complete wrong direction.

New Horizon's location. Almost half way from Saturn to Uranus. Unsure what happened to the previous image. Uploading to Photobucket from now on, which seems more reliable.
