Data Set Overview
=================
This dataset contains data generated by MIRO during the Earth
Swing-by 2 mission phase of Rosetta. These data cover the
following periods and activities:
(All are in 2007, so Year is omitted from dates.)
Start Time Stop Time Activity
(mm-ddThh:mm) (mm-ddThh:mm)
11-13T13:24 11-13T15:00 Observation of Moon (MR05)
11-13T20:45 11-13T21:25 Close observation of Earth
(Asteroid mode used) (MR03)
11-16T08:54 11-16T10:30 Observation of Earth (MR04A)
11-16T11:49 11-16T13:00 Observation of Moon (MR06A)
11-18T08:54 11-18T10:30 Observation of Earth (MR04B)
11-18T10:46 11-18T12:05 Observation of Moon (MR06B)
11-20T08:54 11-20T10:30 Observation of Earth (MR04C)
11-20T10:46 11-20T12:05 Observation of Moon (MR06C)
Note that no calibrated data were generated for the Active Payload
Checkout #6, in contrast to the corresponding level-2 archive,
because calibrated data are not meaningful for that test.
Author List

Irigoyen, R., Janssen, M., Stek, P., Hofstadter, M., Allen, M.,
Backus, C., Kamp, L., Jarchow, C., Steinmetz, E., Deschamps, A.,
Krieg, J., Gheudin, M., Bockelee-Morvan, D., Biver, N., Encrenaz,
T., Despois, D., Ip, W., Lellouch, E., Mann, I., Muhleman, D.,
Rauer, H., Schloerb, P., and Spilker, T.
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
values 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_______________00061.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.
