Data Set Abstract This data set includes Voyager 2 Saturn encounter position data that have been generated at a 48.0 second sample rate using the NAIF SPICE kernals. The data set is composed of 4 columns: 1) ctime - this column contains the data acquisition time. The time is always output in the ISO standard spacecraft event time format (yyyy-mm-dd-Thh:mm:ss.sss) but is stored internally in Cline time which is measured in seconds after 00:00:00.000 Jan 01, 1966, 2) r - this column contains the radial distance from Saturn in Rs : 60330 km, 3) longitude - this column contains the east longitude of the spacecraft in degrees, 4) latitude - this column contains the latitude of the spacecraft in degrees. Position data is given in Minus Saturn Longitude System (kronographic) coordinates.
