The Geology of Pluto and Charon Through the Eyes of New Horizons
Jeffrey M. Moore, William B. McKinnon, John R. Spencer +38
NASA's New Horizons spacecraft has revealed the complex geology of Pluto and Charon. Pluto's encounter hemisphere shows ongoing surface geological activity centered on a vast basin…
Surface Compositions Across Pluto and Charon
W. M. Grundy, R. P. Binzel, B. J. Buratti +32
The New Horizons spacecraft mapped colors and infrared spectra across the encounter hemispheres of Pluto and Charon. The volatile ices CH, CO, and N, that dominate Pluto's…
The Small Satellites of Pluto as Observed by New Horizons
H. A. Weaver, M. W. Buie, B. J. Buratti +48
The New Horizons mission has provided resolved measurements of Pluto's moons Styx, Nix, Kerberos, and Hydra. All four are small, with equivalent spherical diameters of 40…
Global Albedos of Pluto and Charon from LORRI New Horizons Observations
B. J. Buratti, J. D. Hofgartner, M. D. Hicks +14
The exploration of the Pluto-Charon system by the New Horizons spacecraft represents the first opportunity to understand the distribution of albedo and other photometric properties…
Inflight Radiometric Calibration of New Horizons' Multispectral Visible Imaging Camera (MVIC)
C. J. A. Howett, A. H. Parker, C. B. Olkin +35
We discuss two semi-independent calibration techniques used to determine the in-flight radiometric calibration for the New Horizons' Multi-spectral Visible Imaging Camera (MVIC). T…
Saturn's icy satellites investigated by Cassini - VIMS. IV. Daytime temperature maps
Gianrico Filacchione, Emiliano D'Aversa, Fabrizio Capaccioni +13
The spectral position of the 3.6 micron continuum peak measured on Cassini-VIMS I/F spectra is used as a marker to infer the temperature of the regolith particles covering the surf…
