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…

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…

Size, shape, density, and atmospheric limit of (50000) Quaoar revealed from 14 years of stellar occultation

Giuliano Margoti, Felipe Braga-Ribas, José Luis Ortiz +173

We present results from 28 stellar occultations by the large Trans-Neptunian Object (50000) Quaoar registered between 2018 and 2025. By performing a joint analysis of this occultat…

Moving object detection from multi-depth images with an attention-enhanced CNN

Masato Shibukawa, Fumi Yoshida, Toshifumi Yanagisawa +12

One of the greatest challenges for detecting moving objects in the solar system from wide-field survey data is determining whether a signal indicates a true object or is due to som…

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…
