During the course of the MESSENGER mission the EPPS science team may update previously released data products or documentation; for example, updates may occur due to changes in calibration data or procedures. Updates may be reported in this file. Section A of this file contains an entry for each MESSENGER release with general information about the contents of the release, in order from newest to oldest. Updates to previously released files are reported in these entries, along with any known errata. Section B of this file contains general notes, if any, concerning the archive as a whole. Section B also contains notes that do not accompany a particular release. ******** SECTION A ******** RELEASE NUMBER: 15 RELEASE DATE: 2016-05-06 DATA COVERAGE: 2004-08-16 to 2015-04-30 (Launch, Earth Cruise, Earth Flyby, Venus 2 Flyby, Mercury 1 Cruise, Mercury 1 Flyby, Mercury 2 Cruise, Mercury 2 Flyby, Mercury 3 Cruise, Mercury 3 Flyby, Mercury 4 Cruise, Mercury Orbit, Mercury Orbit Year 2, Mercury Orbit Year 3, Mercury Orbit Year 4, Mercury Orbit Year 5) PRODUCT TYPES RELEASED FOR THIS ARCHIVE: EPPS CDR PRODUCT TYPES UPDATED FOR THIS ARCHIVE: EPPS CDR. 1. No EPPS data were collected during the Venus 1 Flyby phase. 2. This is the final release for this volume which includes a complete redelivery of all calibrated data products, except as described above. These have been reprocessed using the final SPICE parameters and all final calibrations and corrections, as applicable. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- RELEASE NUMBER: 14 RELEASE DATE: 2015-10-09 DATA COVERAGE: 2013-01-01 to 2015-04-30 (Mercury Orbit Year 2, Mercury Orbit Year 3, Mercury Orbit Year 4, Mercury Orbit Year 5) PRODUCT TYPES RELEASED FOR THIS ARCHIVE: EPPS CDR PRODUCT TYPES UPDATED FOR THIS ARCHIVE: EPPS CDR. 1. EPS_LORES_SPECTRA: Products from 2013-001 to 2014-260 were reprocessed to correct errors of a few seconds in their UTC values. 2. EPS_SCAN_SPECTRA: There are data gaps in this volume inclusively spanning 2014-334 to 2014-350, 2014-352 to 2015-022, and 2015-092 to end of mission on 2015-120.
