Description:
Shown here are the six widest-known Trans-Neptunian binaries and their measured mutual orbits. The binaries are rendered in 0.35-arcsecond seeing, and astrometric measurements of the secondary's location with respect to the primary are overlain at the time of observation. Red points indicate key data taken from the Gemini North observatory, primarily as part of observing programs associated with my PhD thesis research. Blue points indicate data taken at other facilities (including VLT, WIYN, Pal
