PDS_VERSION_ID = PDS3 RECORD_TYPE = STREAM OBJECT = TEXT PUBLICATION_DATE = 2002-10-15 NOTE = "INFO.TXT describes the contents of the VG2 data directory." END_OBJECT = TEXT END The VG2 data directory contains 6 types of instrument data and ephemeris data files from the Voyager 2 Saturn encounter. These instruments include: 1) CRS, 2) LECP, 3) MAG, 4) PLS, 5) PRA, and 6) PWS. The ephemeris data directory is named as EPHEM. Data in this directory covers the time period from 1981-08-19 to 1981-09-04. Individual data sets may have different start and stop times of the coverage. Please refer to the following list for information on each instrument data files, which also contain INFO.TXT files, that describe the data file contents.
