It'd be hard to justify a mission on that alone. At least for now. Get space based industry going and then there's lots of missions that open up.

New Horizons will get there eventually, and from a brief search, it sounds like it could still get back useful data once it's out that far. NASA will need to keep the communications line funded, though.
