Observations of High Galactic Latitude Line and Continuum Emission (912 - 1600 Å) with New Horizons

Jayant Murthy, James Overduin, Seth Redfield +5

We present observations of the cosmic ultraviolet background (CUVB) from 912 - 1600 A using the Stem aperture of the Alice spectrograph on the New Horizons spacecraft at 56 AU from…

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…

A Demonstration of Interstellar Navigation Using New Horizons

Tod R. Lauer, David H. Munro, John R. Spencer +51

As NASA's New Horizons spacecraft exits the Solar System bound for interstellar space, it has traveled so far that the nearest stars have shifted markedly from their positions seen…

The Lyman alpha Sky as Observed by New Horizons

G. R. Gladstone, J. M. Shull, W. R. Pryor +22

During September 2023 the Alice ultraviolet spectrograph on the New Horizons (NH) spacecraft was used to map diffuse Lyman alpha (Lya) emission over most of the sky, at a range of…

A Contact Binary Satellite of the Asteroid (152830) Dinkinesh

Harold F. Levison, Simone Marchi, Keith S. Noll +3

Asteroids with diameters less than about 5 km have complex histories because they are small enough for radiative torques, YORP, to be a notable factor in their evolution. (152830)…
