NAME RADIO SCIENCE SUBSYSTEM
TYPE ATMOSPHERIC SCIENCES
DESCRIPTION Radio science investigations utilize instrumentation with elements both on a spacecraft and at ground stations -- in this case, at the NASA Deep Space Network (DSN). The spacecraft part of the radio science instrument is described immediately below; that is followed by a description of the DSN (ground) part of the instrument.
