" END_OBJECT = TEXT END This is the top-level information file in the DOCUMENT/AAA_GENERIC_README/ sub-directory of a New Horizons (NH) Planetary Data Systems (PDS) data set. The files in this sub-directory compose a generic map to information about the data set in which it is delivered. There is a minimal amount of data set-specific information in these files because all NH data sets are organized in a similar fashion. For data set-specific information, refer to the data set catalog file CATALOG/DATASET.CAT. Boilerplate disclaimer ====================== All NH raw and calibrated data sets were generated in similar fashion by an automated pipeline; as such, much of the information that follows is boilerplate common to all such NH data sets. Refer to the data set catalog (CATALOG/DATASET.CAT) and documentation (DOCUMENT/), as well as the data set-specific and instrument-specific documents referred to in the Required Reading list below, for information specific to the instrument and data of this data set. Introduction ============ Science data content -------------------- This document provides an overview of this dataset of the New Horizons (NH) SWAP JUPITER Calibrated VERSION 4.0 Data Archive, including a general listing of the dataset contents. This dataset contains flight data obtained during the Jupiter encounter mission phase of the New Horizons mission, taken by the Solar Wind Around Pluto instrument of the New Horizons spacecraft. Refer to the data sequence list file DOCUMENT/SEQ_SWAP_JUPITER.* for descriptions of the sequences that generated these data (see also Note 2 below). General statements about NH PDS data sets ========================================= Extensive preparation is necessary to properly understand and interpret the data in this data set. Although some detail is provided here, this file is only intended as an introduction to and starting point for this data set; refer to the Required Reading section below for further guidance. Start and stop times -------------------- The start and stop times of data products in some NH data sets may overlap the ***NOMINAL*** start and stop times, i.e. 2007-01-01T00:00:00 and 2007-06-27T00:00:00 UTC, respectively, of that mission phase (see also Note 1 below). See the Mission catalog file NH.CAT in the /CATALOG/ directory for a description of the New Horizons mission, including a description of mission phases. Note 1: Because single data products may span from milliseconds to days of data, their start time may precede, or their stop times may follow, the mission ***NOMINAL*** phase start or stop times, respectively. Refer to CATALOG/DATASET.CAT for the exact start and stop times of data in this data set. Note 2: Some planned sequences in that list were not executed, due to operational considerations such as spacecraft safing events, so some sequences will have no corresponding data.
