Scientific paper

We present visible images of dwarf planet 134340 Pluto. These images were made over the course of almost two decades of observations. We present reconstructions of these images and search for temporal variation in the surface features. We use the MISTRAL reconstruction algorithm (Conan et al. 2000) to reconstruct the images at enhanced spatial resolution. Pluto's satellites are too small for reliable reconstruction but we will report any change in their total reflectivity.
