Oh no, much harder to find, they will be as hidden as 'secret pirate bases'
The ones with the huge holographic flags?

Hi - I'm confused now. I am a £90 original kickstarter backer and in the original kickstarter descriptions it says that includes an expansion pass - I'm pretty sure I've seen expansion pass listed in my purchased items before - are you saying that doesn't entitle me to Horizons then?
OK, I admit I was quite skeptical about future content, but this announcement made me buy the lifetime expansion pass.
Looking forward to try all this goodness in VR next year.
The Lifetime Expansion Pass also grants access to the beta of the Elite Dangerous: Horizons expansion season when it's available.
The deal is the same for both parties. New customers effectively get the base game for the same (or a bit less) than the discount you get for already owning the game.

Standard beta was at the £50 level, £90 was the premium box set.

You're saying that when Horizons comes out that ED will be reduced in cost to just £10
Bring on beta!
I just checked on the Kickstarter page and the expansions do in fact start at £90.
£80 reward
485 backers
Digital Download Pack. This includes a single digital download of the game, and any expansions, and all the other rewards above except those requiring physical delivery.
Estimated delivery: Mar 2014
So now all the cry babies will be shouting at FD "I couldn't finish him off because he flew down to a planet, Ban them now FD BAN THEM NOW!!"Yes, but any content specific to Elite Dangerous: Horizons won't be available. So iif you fly onto a planet surface then they won't be able to follow.

Yes - the digital pack included the expansion pass at £80 or higher so would include Horizons, however it would not provide you with beta access.

Elite Dangerous: Horizons now makes clear how we plan to monetize Elite: Dangerous going forwards. This novel approach keeps the community together and avoids 'pay to win' pitfalls common in other games," Frontier Chief Executive Officer David Braben said
Hmmm...does that mean ALL players (i.e. Xbox/PC/Mac) even though the PR only mentions PC??All Elite: Dangerous players will fly together in the same galaxy...
