NEW HORIZONS LORRI PLUTO CRUISE CALIBRATED V2.0

This data set contains Calibrated data taken by the New Horizons Long Range Reconnaissance Imager instrument during the pluto cruise mission phase. This is VERSION 2.0 of this data set. The spacecraft was in hibernation for much of the Pluto Cruise mission phase, and the focus for LORRI during Annual CheckOuts (ACOs) one through four (ACO1-4) was preparation for the Pluto Encounter in 2015, including functional tests, calibrations, and encounter rehearsals. Science observations performed by LORRI during this phase included the following targets: KBO objects KBO 2005 FY9 (Makemake) and KBO 2003 EL61 (Haumea); Centaur object Chariklo; the planets Jupiter, Uranus, and Neptune. The ACO tests also had LORRI observing several other targets: Pluto; the star field that will be visible 3 days before Pluto closest approach in 2015; the M7 star field; the star Vega. A full functional test was performed during ACO1 in 2007, with ACO 'Lite' tests performed during ACO2-4 in 2008, 2009 and 2010. Specific tests and calibrations performed during ACOs included the following: scattered light test (2007, 2008, 2010); Pluto OpNav test (2007, 2008); lamp tests (2007, 2008, 2009, 2010); star tracker calibration test (2008); GNC mosaic settling test (2008); LEISA-LORRI ridealong (2008); scattered light dither test (2010). The changes in Version 2.0 were re-running of the ancillary data in the data product, updated geometry from newer SPICE kernels, minor editing of the documentation, catalogs, etc., and resolution of liens from the December, 2014 review, plus those from the May, 2016 review of the Pluto Encounter data sets. The lossy images from Version 1.0 were recalibrated, including expanding the 'bad' pixel designation of 8x8 boxes affected by the first 34 pixels of header information in the calibrated quality map. No new observations were added with this version (V2.0).

CASSINI ORBITER MAG CALIBRATED SUMMARY 1 SEC AVERAGES V1.0

This data set contains calibrated 1 second averaged Cassini magnetometer data, for the entire Cassini mission. These data are provided in Kronographic (KRTP, KSO, KSM) coordinates at Saturn, Geographic coordinates (GSE, GSM) for the Earth flyby, Jovigraphic coordinates for the Jupiter flyby, and RTN coordinates for the entire mission. These data were calibrated and converted to physical coordinates from the Cassini MAG Raw Data Set (CO-E/SW/J/S-MAG-2-REDR-RAW-DATA-V1.0), by the Cassini MAG team at Imperial College. The data averaged to 1 second at the PDS-PPI node at UCLA.

VG2 SAT LECP CALIBRATED RESAMPLED SCAN AVERAGED 15MIN V1.0

This browse data consists of resampled data from the Low Energy Charged Particle (LECP) experiment on Voyager 2 while the spacecraft was in the vicinity of Saturn. This instrument measures the intensities of in-situ charged particles (>26 keV electrons and >30 keV ions) with various levels of discrimination based on energy, mass species, and angular arrival direction. A subset of almost 100 LECP channels are included with this data set. The LECP data are globally calibrated to the extent possible (see below) and they are time averaged to about 15 minute time intervals with the exact beginning and ending times for those intervals matching the LECP instrumental cycle periods (the angular scanning periods). The LECP instrument has a rotating head for obtaining angular anisotropy measurements of the medium energy charged particles that it measures. The cycle time for the rotation is variable, but during encounters it is always faster than 15 minutes. For this browse data set only scan average data is given (no angular information). The data is in the form of 'rate' data which has not been converted to the usual physical units.

NEW HORIZONS LEISA KEM1 CALIBRATED V1.0

FIELD EXP E REAG CALIBRATED RDR OPTICAL DEPTH V1.0

This data set consists of optical depth measurements made using the the Reagan Radiometer (acquired data in July 17 and September 29, 1989 at Lunar Lake). Total instantaneous optical depth was obtained from the data through use of Beer's Law, as follows. The set of observations for one channel are plotted as natural logarithm of instrument voltage versus secant of incidence angle (i.e., Langley Plot). This allows one to solve for the equivalent instrument voltage that would be obtained above the atmosphere (the plot intercept) and the optical depth (the plot slope). Instantaneous optical depths were then derived by using this intercept and solving for optical depth using pairs of voltage values acquired close together in time.

FIELD EXP EARTH PFES CALIBRATED RDR SPECTRUM V1.0

Portable Field Emission Spectrometer (PFES) data were acquired on July 15 and 17, 1989. A total of 31 measurements were collected for GRSFE. Of these measurements, 13 were calibrations and 18 were of representative surfaces. The data were collected primarily to support the calibration of the TIMS data and to assist in interpreting spectral mixing in the mid-infrared. Sites were selected for calibration that covered a range of emissivities. On July 15, PFES data were collected at Kelso Dunes and the Cima Volcanic Field as part of the Calibration Team effort. Daedalus and SIRIS data were collected over the same sites. For the PFES data, the Kelso Dunes Bright Target site represented the silica-rich endmember and the Cima basalt tephra Dark Target site represented the more silica-poor endmember. On July 17, PFES data were collected at two of the modelling sites at Lunar Lake (the playa and the cobble sites). Several spectra were also collected at the playa surface next to the Lunar Lake thermistor site.

The SDC instrument was commissioned on March 2, 2006 and stepped through a checkout of all instrument functionality successfully. Following these activities, SDC collected science data intermittently throughout the first year of the mission. The changes in Version 4.0 were re-running of the ancillary data in the data product, updated geometry from newer SPICE kernels, minor editing of the documentation, catalogs, etc., and resolution of liens from the December, 2014 review, plus those from the May, 2016 review of the Pluto Encounter data sets. No new observations were added with Version 4.0.
