MESSENGER E/V/H MASCS 3 VIRS CALIBRATED DATA V1.0

Abstract ======== This data set consists of the MESSENGER MASCS VIRS calibrated observations, also known as CDRs. The MASCS VIRS experiment is a fixed concave grating spectrograph with a beam splitter that simultaneously disperses the spectrum onto two photodiode arrays. There are two VIRS CDR data products, one for each array, which result in coverage of the wavelength ranges of the visible (VIS) and near infrared (NIR).

In addition to the imagery, anciliary information is stored within the image headers, as well as a detailed account of all the reference files used for the calibration. Calibration files used during processing are archived as a separate data set.

EPOXI MARS OBS - MRI CALIBRATED IMAGES V1.0

This data set contains calibrated 750-nm filter images of Mars acquired by the Deep Impact Medium Resolution Visible CCD (MRI) for the EPOCh project during the second cruise phase of the EPOXI mission. One set of observations was acquired on 20-21 November 2009 to characterize Mars as an analog for extrasolar planets. The observing period lasted approximately 24 hours, and one MRI image was taken simultaneously with the first north/south scan of the HRI IR spectrometer at half-hour intervals to provide context for the spectral scans.

EPOXI EARTH OBS - MRI CALIBRATED IMAGES V1.0

This data set set contains version 1.0 of calibrated 750-nm filter images of Earth acquired by the Deep Impact Medium Resolution Visible CCD during the EPOCh phase of the EPOXI mission. The MRI instrument was only used during first Earth observing period on 18-19 March 2008. The observing period lasted approximately 24 hours, and one MRI image was taken simultaneously with the first north/south scan of the HRI IR spectrometer at half-hour intervals. These MRI data serve as context images for the IR spectral scans. Additional Earth observations are planned for the mission, and, if acquired, MRI images will be added to a future version of this data set.

CASSINI S MIMI LEMMS SENSOR CALIBRATED DATA V1.0

The Cassini Magnetospheric Imaging Instrument (MIMI) Low Energy Magnetospheric Measurements (LEMMS) measures ions and electrons in the energy range 0.03 to 18 MeV for ions and 0.015 to 0.884 MeV for electrons. The LEMMS calibrated data set includes two types of daily plots -- one presenting energy-time spectorgrams in units of intensity, and one with plots of particle pressures. There are also four types of averaged data -- minute and hourly averages for accumulator rate data and PHA data (ions and electrons). These data have been created at the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory by applying the calibrations and averaging. Averaging is done by first defining time periods, and then averaging all data points within those fixed intervals. The time reported is the midpoint time of the interval.

FIELD EXP EARTH PARABOLA CALIBRATED RDR SPECTRUM V1.0

PARABOLA data were obtained at three GRSFE modeling sites in the Lunar Crater Volcanic Field. The playa site, the cobble site, and the mantled flow site. Each site was imaged by PARABOLA at a variety of solar incidence angles to characterize the scattering properties of the surface completely. This information can be used as a reference to correct airborne data from ASAS and AVIRIS from any lighting and viewing geometry, or as a base data set to test radiative transfer models. Six sets of data from the playa site were gathered primarily on July 17, 1989 with solar incidence angles that varied from 28 to 71 degrees. Five sets of cobble site data were gathered during the morning of July 18, 1989 with incidence angles from 19 to 57 degrees. Data from the mantled flow site was obtained six times during the afternoon of July 18 with incidence angles from 21 to 73 degrees. In all, over 1000 data points exist for each site to characterize its scattering properties. Additionally, an equal number of points exist for the sky above the sites.

CASSINI ORBITER SATURN UVIS CALIBRATION DATA 1.1

EPOXI EARTH OBS - HRIV CALIBRATED IMAGES V2.0

This data set contains calibrated, narrow band filter images (350-950 nm) of Earth acquired by the Deep Impact High Resolution Visible CCD (HRIV) during the EPOCh and Cruise 2 phases of the EPOXI mission. Five sets of observations were acquired on 18-19 March, 28-29 May and 04-05 June 2008 and on 27-28 March and 04-05 October 2009 to characterize Earth as an analog for extrasolar planets. Each observing period lasted approximately 24 hours. HRIV images were acquired once per hour with the filters centered on 350, 750 and 950 nm, whereas the 450-, 550-, 650-, and 850-nm data were taken every 15 minutes. During the observing period in May 2008, the Moon transited across Earth as seen from the spacecraft. On 27 September 2009 during the first attempt of an Earth south polar observation, only seven HRIV frames were acquired before fault protection turned that instrument off; the full sequence was successfully rerun on 04-05 October 2009. Version 2.0 includes the application of a horizontal destriping process and revised electronic crosstalk calibration files.

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).

Calibrated data from three orbits of S-Band (13 cm wavelength) Magellan bistatic radar data collected with NASA antenna DSS 63 on 5 June 1994 when the specular point crossed Maxwell Montes. Similarly processed data were used by Pettengill et al. (SCIENCE, 272, 1628-1631, 1996) to infer existence of a semiconductor layer covering anomalously reflecting regions at high altitude on Venus. This new data set includes calibrated time samples of receiver output as well as calibrated power spectra and voltage cross spectra (between the two received polarizations). The data set was written to three DVD+R volumes for delivery to the NASA Planetary Data System (PDS).
