TL;DR:
The age, composition, and formation process of the most pristine object yet visited by a spacecraft is determined, and improved stereo imaging constrains the object’s shape and topography and allows us to generate a stereographic terrain model.

TL;DR:
The New Horizons spacecraft completed its MU69 flyby on 1 January 2019, with a closest approach distance of 3538 km—less than one-third of its closest distance to Pluto.

TL;DR:
Changes in topography across radar-bright deposits hosted in flat-floored, complex craters using individual edited Mercury Laser Altimeter tracks are investigated and it is shown that the two populations cannot be distinguished.

Open access is the free, immediate, online availability of research
articles. Making your research open access allows researchers across
to globe read and interact with your work which may increase citations
to your work.
Citation Index includes data from a number of different sources. If you have questions about the sources of data in the Citation Index or need a set of data which is free to re-distribute, please contact us.
