END_OBJECT = TEXT END This directory contains the Pioneer 11 Fluxgate Magnetometer data from the Saturn encounter period between 1979-09-01 22:30:16 and 1979-09-01 22:30:16. The data set provides 146 second magnetic field averages in RK spherical coordinates and spacecraft trajectory data. The data are stored as one ASCII table files (.TAB), accompanied by a PDS label file (.LBL) which describes the properties of the data file.
