Large-scale cryovolcanic resurfacing on Pluto
Kelsi N. Singer, Oliver L. White, Bernard Schmitt +22
The New Horizons spacecraft returned images and compositional data showing that terrains on Pluto span a variety of ages, ranging from relatively ancient, heavily cratered areas to…
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…
A Near Surface Temperature Model of Arrokoth
O. M. Umurhan, W. M. Grundy, M. K. Bird +19
A near surface thermal model for Arrokoth is developed based on the recently released facet model of the body. This thermal solution takes into account Arrokoth's surface re…
Anomalous Flux in the Cosmic Optical Background Detected With New Horizons Observations
Tod R. Lauer, Marc Postman, John R. Spencer +27
We used New Horizons LORRI images to measure the optical-band () sky brightness within a high galactic-latitude field selected to have reduced diffu…
A bimodal distribution of haze in Pluto's atmosphere
Siteng Fan, Peter Gao, Xi Zhang +8
Pluto, Titan, and Triton make up a unique class of solar system bodies, with icy surfaces and chemically reducing atmospheres rich in organic photochemistry and haze formation. Haz…
