Data Processing Notes ===================== Data Timing Uncertainty ----------------------- Some of the data files in this bundle may extend beyond the time for which the Spacecraft Clock (SCLK) drift rate was defined based upon the SPICE MAVEN SCLK kernel used to process them. As a result the SCLK drift rate may have been predicted, resulting in small errors in the time (typically less than a few 1/100's seconds). Where this may be the case a note has been included in the individual PDS product labels.
