We present the rotational visible light curve of 2005 FY9, one of several recently discovered Pluto-sized Kuiper Belt Objects. Measurements of 2005 FY9 were taken in VRI-bands intensively over a two week period using the Pomona College Telescope at the JPL Table Mountain Facility. Over many months a single observation per night was also taken with the SMARTS 1.3m telescope at Cerro Tololo. This is part of an ongoing effort to study the physical characteristics of the largest Kuiper Belt objects.
