I just asked Mark Showalter at the PDS Rings Node if they were going to incorporate New Horizons into their Jupiter viewer. Turns out they already have a separate New Horizons Jupiter Viewer and Ephemeris Generator, which I hadn't noticed before. The Viewer is very handy to get a prediction of how the planet, satellites, and rings will look to the ORS instruments at different times during the encounter. To get the field of view you want using the viewer:
LORRI's FOV is square at 1044 arcsec The slit of the Alice spectrometer is 14438 arcsec long (it's only 350 arcsec wide) MVIC panoramas are 20626 arcsec wide and whatever number they want long LEISA's FOV is square at 3280 arcsec. ...I think. I calculated these based on the FOV numbers given at http://pluto.jhuapl.edu/spacecraft/instruments.html. Have fun. --Emily -------------------- My website - My Patreon - @elakdawalla on Twitter - Please support unmannedspaceflight.com by donating here.
