Extended Data Fig. 2: Illustration of PSF fitting for the four filters.

(observation 03, Oct 05, 2022). Top: Background-subtracted images from Extended Data Fig. 1, on a 51×51 pixel grid centered on an initial estimate of Pluto’s position. Middle: Reconstructed image. Solution values for fPluto and fCharon (that is, multiplicative factors for the PSF at Pluto and Charon) and for a residual background correction (MJy/sr) are indicated. Bottom: Observed minus model residuals. The color bars indicate the flux levels in MJy/sr. The fitted positions of Pluto and Charon are indicated by the circle and cross, respectively.
