Kilometre-scale Jovian moon characterized for a potential JUICE flyby
Juan Luis Rizos, Jose Maria Gomez-Limon, Yucel Kilic +51
Jupiter's irregular satellites are thought to be relics of early Solar System planetesimals. However, their small sizes, large distances from Earth and close angular proximity to J…
The Shape of (486958) Arrokoth
Simon B. Porter, Kelsi N. Singer, Paul M. Schenk +6
Here we present an updated shape model of (486958) Arrokoth, the bilobate Kuiper Belt Object (KBO) which the NASA New Horizons spacecraft flew past in 2019. This updated shape mode…
Tracking the Activity of the Interstellar Object 3I/ATLAS through its Perihelion
T. Marshall Eubanks, Craig E. DeForest, Kevin J. Walsh +10
In order to facilitate interplanetary spacecraft observationsof 3I/ATLAS, we have monitored and predicted the optical properties of its coma using both ground and space-based obser…
Beyond Point Masses. I. New Non-Keplerian Modeling Tools Applied to Trans-Neptunian Triple (47171) Lempo
Darin Ragozzine, Seth Pincock, Benjamin C. N. Proudfoot +3
Many details of the formation and evolution of the solar system are best inferred by understanding the orbital and physical properties of small bodies in the solar system. For exam…
The HST Lightcurve of (486958) 2014 MU69
S. D. Benecchi, S. Porter, M. W. Buie +6
We report HST lightcurve observations of the New Horizons (NH) spacecraft encounter KBO (486958) 2014 MU69 acquired near opposition in July 2017. In order to plan the optimum flyby…
The Orbit of Transneptunian Binary Manwë and Thorondor and their Upcoming Mutual Events
W. M. Grundy, S. D. Benecchi, S. B. Porter +1
A new Hubble Space Telescope observation of the 7:4 resonant transneptunian binary system (385446) Manwë has shown that, of two previously reported solutions for the orbit of its s…
