Great update as usual. I am wondering, though from this:
QUOTE Transmitting the remaining data from the Arrokoth encounter back to Earth What remains on board to still be transmitted, if it was obviously not of high priority to receive before? Has it also been ruled out to look back at the (inner) solar system, as Voyager 1 once did so memorably? The Sun is still too bright even now to risk LORRI, is data transmission the bottleneck, or is there some other reason (would Earth even be visible at all?) to not update the classic Pale Blue Dot image? |
