This is a picture of the far side of the Moon and Earth beyond, captured on Feb. 4 by a camera on board the student-built Chinese DSLWP-B/Longjiang-2 satellite and received by the amateur-operated Dwingeloo Telescope in The Netherlands. (HT @AJ_FI @radiotelescoop) pic.twitter.com/pQAJ…

My favorite slide from the presser (because I helped a teeny bit with that campaign) shows how well the real MU69 matches stellar occultation data taken back in 2017. Absolutely incredible optical and logistics work by Marc Buie, @AscendingNode and the rest of the @SwRI NH team! pic.twitter.com/R8sg…
