Pluto-Charon Mutual Events
During the period 1985-1990, the earth entered the orbital plane
of Pluto and its moon Charon, and the mutual eclipse events were
observed from ground-based observatories. A subset of these data
are included in this data set, including photoelectric photometry data
from thirty-nine events observed at Mauna Kea Observatory by Tholen,
and CCD photometry data from fifteen events observed at Palomar
Observatory by Buratti and colleagues.
