Prediction of the occultation by Pluto on 15 August 2018, using JPL DE436/PLU055 (top) and NIMAv8/PLU055 (bottom) ephemerides. The red dashed lines represent the 1σ uncertainty on the path, taking into account the uncertainties of NIMAv8 ephemeris and of the star position. The bullets on the shadow central line are plotted every minute. The dark and light blue thinner lines are the shadow limits corresponding the stellar half-light level and 1% stellar drop level (the practical detection limit), respectively.
