The Alice instrument on NASA's New Horizons spacecraft observed an ultraviolet solar occultation by Pluto's atmosphere on 2015 July 14. The transmission vs. altitude was sensitive to the presence of N_2, CH_4, C_2H_2, C_2H_4, C_2H_6, and haze. We derived line-of-sight abundances and local number densities for the 5 molecular species, and line-of-sight optical depth and extinction coefficients for the haze. We found the following major conclusions: (1) We confirmed temperatures in Pluto's upper atmosphere that were colder than expected before the New Horizons flyby, with upper atmospheric temperatures near 65–68 K. The inferred enhanced Jeans escape rates were (3–7) × 10^(22) N_2 s^(−1) and (4–8) × 10^(25) CH_4 s^(−1) at the exobase (at a radius of ∼ 2900 km, or an altitude of ∼1710 km). (2) We measured CH_4 abundances from 80 to 1200 km above the surface. A joint analysis of the Alice CH_4 and Alice and REX N_2 measurements implied a very stable lower atmosphere with a small eddy diffusion coefficient, most likely between 550 and 4000 cm^2 s^(−1). Such a small eddy diffusion coefficient placed the homopause within 12 km of the surface, giving Pluto a small planetary boundary layer. The inferred CH_4 surface mixing ratio was ∼ 0.28–0.35%. (3) The abundance profiles of the “C_2H_x hydrocarbons” (C_2H_2, C_2H_4, C_2H_6) were not simply exponential with altitude. We detected local maxima in line-of-sight abundance near 410 km altitude for C_2H_4, near 320 km for C_2H_2, and an inflection point or the suggestion of a local maximum at 260 km for C_2H_6. We also detected local minima near 200 km altitude for C_2H_4, near 170 km for C_2H_2, and an inflection point or minimum near 170–200 km for C_2H_6. These compared favorably with models for hydrocarbon production near 300–400 km and haze condensation near 200 km, especially for C_2H_2 and C_2H_4 (Wong et al., 2017). (4) We found haze that had an extinction coefficient approximately proportional to N_2 density
