  Modification History
  ====================
 
    Version 1.1 (Nov. 2010):
    - Added UTC to all data files, revised *.FMT files and other
      documentation accordingly.

    The author list in the CITATION_DESC includes only those persons
    who worked on preparing this archive dataset for delivery.  The
    full list of all persons involved in the MIRO experiment is
    (taken from the GULKISETAL2007 reference):
    S. Gulkis, Frerking, M., Crovisier, J., Beaudin, G., Hartogh, P.,
    Encrenaz, P., Koch, T., Kahn, C., Salinas, Y., Nowicki, R.,
    Irigoyen, R., Janssen, M., Stek, P., Hofstadter, M., Allen, M.,

  Geometry Information
  ====================
 
    The MIRO data file labels contain vectors specifying the position
    of the Sun and Target body relative to the spacecraft and the
    velocity of the Target body relative to the spacecraft.  The value
    s of the keywords SC_SUN_POSITION_VECTOR,
    SC_TARGET_POSITION_VECTOR and SC_TARGET_VELOCITY_VECTOR are
    related to the ECLIPJ2000 reference frame.  The values of
    SUB_SPACECRAFT_LATITUDE and SUB_SPACECRAFT_LONGITUDE are northern
    latitude and eastern longitude in the standard planetocentric IAU
     frame.  All values are computed for the the midpoint
    of the observations.  Distances are given in , velocities in
    , angles in .
 
    This information was obtained using the following NAIF/SPICE
    kernel files:
 
    ORHR_______________00028.BSP
    de405s.bsp
 
    The vectors were retrieved using the NAIF call SPKEZ() with a
    correction for one-way light time and stellar aberration using a
    Newtonian formulation.
 
    More geometry information is given in the GEOMETRY directory of
    this archive.

ABSTRACT_TEXT This data set contains Spectroscopic and Continuum data, in the form of table files, taken during the first Earth swing-by phase of the Rosetta mission by the MIRO instrument. These data have been calibrated to antenna temperatures. Version 1.1 added UTC to the data files, added a GEOMETRY directory and incorporated a number of minor documentation additions and corrections.
