This REX dataset includes operational tests and calibrations taken during the approach to Pluto, including a series of ground in the loop tests to prepare for the Pluto and Charon occultations. From the day of the Pluto Encounter, two observations are included, the bi-static radar THERMSCAN data, which measured the DSN uplink signal reflected off of Pluto during the flyby, and the Pluto occultation data for both ingress and egress.
