1.1.5 Star Counts in the Background Sky Observed from Pioneer 10
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
Star counts in the sky region observed by Pioneer 10 at 4.64AU from the sun, where the contribution of zodiacal light is negligible, were made using the Palomar Sky Survey Atlas. Brightness of the integrated starlight derived from our star counts agrees, in general, with the Pioneer 10’s observation.
