Pioneer Venus (PVO) magnetometer (OMAG)
high resolution data acquired after the multiplexer anomaly that allowed
data from only a single sensor (P-sensor) to be returned to the ground
(orbits 3602-5055, 1988-10-15 to 1992-10-08).

Data Set Abstract |
This dataset contains full resolution
magnetometer data from the Pioneer Venus Orbiter spacecraft beginning with
orbit 3602 (Oct 16, 1988) and continuing until the orbiter was lost in the
Venusian atmosphere (orbit 5055, Oct 7, 1992). The dataset differs from the
high resolution magnetometer dataset from theprevious orbits due to an
anomaly in the multiplexor that controlled the sampling of the magnetometer
sensors. During orbit 3602, and for the remainder of the mission, the
spacecraft downlink contained magnetometer data from only the P sensor. The
P sensor is the sensor which is aligned with the spacecraft spin axis,
nominally in the direction of the ecliptic normal. |
