NSSDC_DATA_SET_ID
DATA_SET_TERSE_DESCRIPTION
DATA_SET_DESCRIPTION The MGS Sampler contains MOLA PEDR altimetry profiles in both binary andASCII formats. These ASCII tables contain calibrated MOLA ranges,energies, and topography for 18 contingency passes, Fall 1997. The tableshave 29 columns, delimited by spaces. The tables contain radii,topography, areoid heights, spacecraft location, and instrument data.The information in these files is virtually identical to the binaryPEDRs. The binary tables contain additional engineering data.
