Abstract: This data set contains Raw data taken by the New Horizons Linear Etalon Imaging Spectral Array instrument during the CRUISE TO FIRST KBO ENCOUNTER mission phase. This is VERSION 1.0 of this data set. This data set contains LEISA observations taken for calibrations, functional testing, and MU69 [ASTEROID 486958 (2014 MU69)] Encounter operations testing, including a test of a slow scan rate. Calibrations are performed using Arcturus. This data set contains data acquired by the spacecraft between 09/21/2017 and 11/03/2017. It only includes data downlinked before 01/01/2018. Future datasets may include more data acquired by the spacecraft prior to 01/01/2018 but downlinked later.
