Data Set Abstract This data set includes the MSL SPICE data files (``kernel files''), which can be accessed using SPICE software. The SPICE data contain geometric and other ancillary information needed to recover the full value of science instrument data. In particular SPICE kernels provide rover and planetary ephemerides, instrument mounting alignments, rover orientation, and data needed for relevant time conversions.
