Hier ein kleiner Fahrplan:
7:30AM - Media Briefing: Arrival at Pluto, Inside the Pluto System & New Horizon's Perilous Path (LIVE on NASA TV)
7:49AM - Pluto closest approach at 12,500 KM (~7,750 MI) at approximately 14 KM/SEC (31,000MI/HR).
8:04AM - Charon closest approach at ~29,000 KM (18,000 MI) at same approximate Pluto flyby speed.
Note: During the half-hour when the spacecraft is the closest to Pluto & Charon, it will take close up pictures at both visible & near-infrared wavelengths. The best pictures of Pluto will depict features as small about 70 M (~230 FT) across - about the size of a football field. The spacecraft will also obtain stereo products that will be used to reconstruct Pluto's topography.
8:51AM - New Horizons flies through the shadow cast by Pluto & observe both the Earth & Sun setting, and then rising through Pluto's atmosphere. It will watch the light from the Sun & pick up radio waves from transmitters on Earth, making measurements that will reveal the composition, structure & thermal profile of Pluto's atmosphere in exquisite detail. The spacecraft will also obtain images of Pluto's night side, illuminated by Charon, which casts about as much light onto Pluto as a quarter Moon on Earth.
10:18AM - New Horizons flies through the shadow cast by Charon & make similar observations as when it passed by Pluto's shadow.
9:02PM - Mission team on Earth receives "phone home" signal from New Horizons to indicate the spacecraft survived the close encounter with the Pluto system.
8:30-9:15PM - NASA TV program: Phone Home, broadcast from APL Mission Control (LIVE on NASA TV)
