The primary purpose of the REX system was to investigate open questions regarding atmospheric and ionospheric structure, surface conditions, and planetary radii of both Pluto and Charon. The REX encounter with the Pluto system was focused on occultations, by Pluto and Charon, of an Earth-based, uplink radio signal. The New Horizons HGA remained pointed toward Earth for the duration of the occultation events, beginning and ending with the line-of-sight to Earth well above any anticipated sensible atmosphere or ionosphere. This arrangement set up three investigations at each occ... ...Show More
