New Horizons Venetia Burney Student Dust Counter Observes Higher than Expected Fluxes Approaching 60 AU
Alex Doner, Mihaly Horanyi, Fran Bagenal +8
The NASA New Horizons Venetia Burney Student Dust Counter (SDC) measures dust particle impacts along the spacecraft's flight path for grains with mass g, mapping o…
A Predicted Dearth of Majority Hypervolatile Ices in Oort Cloud Comets
C. M. Lisse, G. R. Gladstone, L. A. Young +30
We present new, ice species-specific New Horizons/Alice upper gas coma production limits from the 01 Jan 2019 MU69/Arrokoth flyby of Gladstone et al. (2021) and use them to make pr…
Modeling Meteoroid Impacts on the Juno spacecraft
Petr Pokorný, Jamey R. Szalay, Mihály Horányi +1
Events which meet certain criteria from star tracker images onboard the Juno spacecraft have been proposed to be due to interplanetary dust particle impacts on its solar arrays. Th…
On the Origin and Thermal Stability of Arrokoths and Plutos Ices
C. M. Lisse, L. A. Young, D. P. Cruikshank +30
We discuss in a thermodynamic, geologically empirical way the long-term nature of the stable majority ices that could be present in Kuiper Belt Object 2014 MU69 after its 4.6 Gyr r…
Initial results from the New Horizons exploration of 2014 MU69, a small Kuiper Belt Object
S. A. Stern, H. A. Weaver, J. R. Spencer +202
The Kuiper Belt is a distant region of the Solar System. On 1 January 2019, the New Horizons spacecraft flew close to (486958) 2014 MU69, a Cold Classical Kuiper Belt Object, a cla…
The Geology and Geophysics of Kuiper Belt Object (486958) Arrokoth
J. R. Spencer, S. A. Stern, J. M. Moore +75
The Cold Classical Kuiper Belt, a class of small bodies in undisturbed orbits beyond Neptune, are primitive objects preserving information about Solar System formation. The New Hor…
