New Horizons target search discoveries, 2011-2013
New Horizons target search discoveries, 2011-2013 Delta-V statistics for the most nearly accessible Kuiper belt objects discovered by the New Horizons search team's ground-based campaign from 2011 to 2013 (blue histogram) compared to predictions (red line). They have not yet reached the “promised land” (green box) of at least one object requiring less than the available 130 m/sec delta-V for targeting. John Spencer et al.
