Scientific paper

We have performed speckle interferometric observations of Pluto and its moon Charon on seven different nights. The measured separations varied from 0".20 to 0".86. The speckle data were recorded with the 2.2-m telescope at the Calar Alto Observatory in Spain. For these measurements 87000 speckle interferograms were reduced digitally. The resolution of the observations is 0".07. The data from July 12 were used to study the size of Pluto and Charon.
