IDENTIFIER urn:nasa:pds:nh_alice:kem1cruise_raw::1.0
NAME New Horizons Alice Ultraviolet Imaging Spectrograph KEM1 Cruise Raw Data
TYPE Data
DESCRIPTION This collection contains Raw data in .FIT format taken by the New Horizons Alice Ultraviolet Imaging Spectrograph instrument during the CRUISE TO FIRST KBO ENCOUNTER mission phase. These data were migrated from the PDS3 dataset: NH-X-ALICE-2-KEMCRUISE1-V2.0. The Alice observations during CRUISE TO FIRST KBO ENCOUNTER include functional testing during the wakeup checkfrom hibernation, high voltage (HV) dark tests, InterPlanetary Medium (IPM) Lyman-Alpha upstream and downstream measurements, spacecraft - instrument interference testing, and calibration testing using Rho Leo. Labels were redesigned during migration using the .FIT header and PDS3 .LBL files, but the data files are unchanged from their PDS3 version.
