Deep Space 1 photometry of the nucleus of Comet P/19 Borrelly

The NASA-JPL Deep Space 1 Mission (DS1) encountered the short-period Jupiter-family comet 19/P Borrelly on September 22, 2001, about 8 days after perihelion. DS1's payload contained a remote-sensing package that included a 1024 square CCD and a near IR spectrometer with ~12nm resolution. Prior to its closest approach, the remote-sensing package on the spacecraft obtained 25 CCD images of the comet and 45 near-IR spectra.
