PDS_VERSION_ID = PDS3 RECORD_TYPE = FIXED_LENGTH RECORD_BYTES = 80 OBJECT = TEXT PUBLICATION_DATE = 2018-08-01 NOTE = "Description of contents of CALIB directory " END_OBJECT = TEXT END The CALIB directory contains leap second, planetary constants, clock conversion, and frames kernels. The files are in ASCII format. Some files evolved as the mission progressed (e.g., the leap second and clock conversion files); users should refer to the files on the most recent (highest numbered) archive volume for the most up-to-date information. The files are: CLOCK CONVERSION (SCK) FILES Clock conversion files allow time measured by the spacecraft clock to be converted to other time systems (e.g., ephemeris time or UTC). These are ASCII files with variable length records delimited by ASCII carriage-return line-feed pairs. File names are of the form TSCnnnnn.SCK where nnnnn is a sequence number assigned by the generating entity. Each file TSCnnnnn.SCK is accompanied by a PDS detached minimal label with name TSCnnnnn.LBL. LEAPSECOND KERNEL (LSK) FILES Leapsecond kernel files are a record of leap seconds (past and predicted) that allow proper conversion between ephemeris time and UTC. These are ASCII files with variable length records delimited by ASCII carriage-return line-feed pairs. File names are of the form TLSnnnnC.LSK where nnnn is a sequence number assigned by NAIF, and C is a character, starting with "A", to distinguish among multiple files that have the same nnnn. Each file TLSnnnnC.LSK is accompanied by a PDS detached minimal label with name TLSnnnnC.LBL. PLANETARY CONSTANTS (PCK) FILES Planetary Constants files contain dimensions, orientations, spin rates and other data about objects in the solar system. These are ASCII files with variable length records delimited by ASCII carriage-return line-feed pairs. File names are of the form PCKydddC.TPC where y is the one-digit year of the file creation date; ddd is the three-digit day of year of the file creation date; and C is a character, starting with "A", to distinguish among multiple files that have the same yddd. File created in 2010 have y = "A", files created in 2011 have y = "B", etc. Each file PCKydddC.TPC is accompanied by a PDS detached minimal label with name PCKydddC.LBL. FRAMES KERNEL (TFK) FILES Frames kernel files contain a complete set of frame definitions for the 2001 Mars Odyssey mission, including the high and low gain antenna frames. These are ASCII files with variable length records delimited by ASCII carriage-return line-feed pairs. File names are of the form HGAnnnnn.TFK where 'nnnnn' is a sequence number indicating the version of the file. Each file HGAnnnnn.TFK is accompanied by a PDS detached minimal label with name HGAnnnnn.LBL.
