DATA_SET_DESC = " Overview: ========= This data set contains Galileo trajectory data in moon (Amalthea, Io, Europa, Ganymede, Callisto) centered coordinates for all of the near satellite encounters. Ephemeris data are provided every two seconds for approximately one hour about closest approach. Coordinates: ============ Two coordinate systems are provided: SPRH (Satellite centered planetocentric, right-handed), PhiO (Satellite centered inertial Phi-Omega coordinates), Distances from the satellites are measured in satellite radii. The radii values used for the various satellites are listed in Table 1. Table 1: Satellite Radii --------------------------- Moon Radius --------------------------- Amalthea 86.2 Io 1818 Europa 1560 Ganymede 2634 Callisto 2409 Satellite centered coordinate systems names are preceded by the first letter in the name of the satellite, in order to indicate which satellite is used as the center. In order words, PhiO coordinates are called EPhiO at Europa and CPhiO at Callisto. SPRH (Satellite centered planetocentric, right-handed) This coordinate system is the basic J2000 definition of planetocentric coordinates, as applied to each of the satellites. In it's Cartesian form the coordinate system has its Z-axis along the satellite axis of rotation positive in the direction of angular momentum, the X-axis in the equatorial plane in the direction of the prime meridian, with the Y-axis completing the right-handed set. The coordinate system rotates with the satellite (body-fixed). All of the SPRH data in this data set are based on the International Astronomical Union (IAU) definitions of the satellite axes orientations and rotation rates from the Report of the IAU/IAG/COSPAR Working Group on Cartographic Coordinates and Rotational Elements of the Planets and Satellites: 1994 [IAU1994]. The specific orbit elements for each satellite are summarized in Table 2. Table 2: Approximate Satellite axes orientations in J2000 Coordinates* --------------------------------------------------------------------- Right Prime Meridian** Satellite Ascension Declination Const Rate -------------------------------------------------------------------- Amalthea 268.05 +64.49 231.67 +722.6314560 Io 268.05 +64.50 200.39 +203.4889538 Europa 268.08 +64.51 35.67 +101.3747235 Ganymede 268.20 +64.57 44.04 +50.3176081 Callisto 268.72 +64.83 259.73 +21.5710715 * Precise definitions include drift rate and nutation corrections ** PM = const + rate*d where d is days after the J2000 epoch. PhiO (Satellite centered inertial Phi-Omega coordinates) The basis vectors of the inertial Phi-Omega coordinate systems are defined at an epoch time that is set at the time of spacecraft closest approach to the satellite. The X-direction is defined to be in the direction of corotation, at the center of the satellite at the epoch time (System III Phi direction [DESSLER1983]). The Z-axis is defined to be orthogonal to the X direction such that the X-Z plane contains the Jupiter spin axis (Omega), positive in the direction of angular momentum. The Y-axis is defined to complete the right-handed set. Since the jovian satellites all lie very close to the jovian equatorial plane, it is often convenient to visualize this coordinate system as follows: X lies in the direction of plasma flow, Y points towards Jupiter, and Z points 'up'. In this data set, the instantaneous satellite-spacecraft range vector is resolved into the Cartesian components of the coordinate system described in the previous paragraph. Table 3 gives the satellite closest approach times (epoch times) and other useful parameters. One particularly useful parameter is the angle (Theta) that the background magnetic field makes with respect to the Z-axis, when projected into the Y-Z plane. The PhiO coordinate system can be rotated about the X-axis by this angle to produce the PhiB coordinate system that has been used extensively in the analysis of the magnetic field data.

Data are time tagged with spacecraft event time (SCET), represented in Universal Time Coordinated (UTC). Data are extracted from SPICE SPK kernels at the sample time. Data are not averaged or otherwise resampled. Data Processing: ================ The trajectory data were created using code written by Steven Joy to extract information from the SPICE (GO-J-SPICE-6-SPK-V1.0) products produced by the Galileo project. The software used to create this ephemeris is well tested and in agreement with similar software provided by the Galileo project. Data: ===== These data are derived from SPICE kernels produced by the Galileo NAV team during the mission. All of the SPICE kernels used to produce this data set are contained on the MWG archive volume DVD in the EXTRAS/SPICE/KERNELS directory. The kernels (PDS PRODUCT_ID) used to create this were: S980326B.TSP - Prime Mission Reconstruction (JA - E12) S000131A.TSP - GEM reconstruction (E12-E26) S030129A.TSP - GMM (I27-A34) reconstruction, J35 predict PCK00007.TPC - Planetary constants kernel (2000-04-24) MK00062B.TSC - Galileo spacecraft clock kernel This data set is highly discontinuous which makes the stated data set start/stop time somewhat misleading. In order to avoid confusion, the start and stop times of each data product in the data set are tabulated in Table 4.
