  Stardust Navcam Flight Data Documentation                                   
  ===================================================                         
                                                                              
    Several documents are included in the DOCUMENT subdirectory to            
    provide a thorough description of the spacecraft, the instruments,        
    and a copy of the preflight calibration report.  The spacecraft           
    and instrument description document is a collection of HTML               
    documents which describe the various subsystems on the spacecraft         
    as well as a description of each of the science instruments on the        
    spacecraft.  This document can be found in the DOCUMENT/SCDESC            
    directory, starting with SCDESC.HTM.                                      
                                                                              
    A copy of the calibration document has been provided because it           
    contains the best known, most current information regarding the           
    camera.  Please remember that the calibration document does not           
    apply to the data provided here, but exclusively to the preflight         
    calibration data.  This document is a collection of a large               
    variety of information regarding the characteristics and behaviour        
    of the STARDUST Navigation camera, as well as the characteristics         
    of the optics and reflecting surfaces.  This report is listed as a        
    single PDF file, suitable for viewing with Adobe Acrobat.  The            
    report can be found in DOCUMENT/CALRPT/CALRPT.PDF.                        
                                                                              
    Corrections to the NAVCAM Data Compression Lookup Table in July 2010      
    --------------------------------------------------------------------      
                                                                              
      While preparing for Stardust-NExt, the mission operation team at        
      JPL informed SBN that the NAVCAM data compression lookup table          
      documented two places within this data set is not correct.  SBN         
      applied the following changes in July 2010:                             
        - Corrected the column labels in DOCUMENT/CALRPT/COMPTABL.CSV         
          and fixed the column and row alignment of the data by moving        
          the second column down one row.                                     
        - Updated the same table in DOCUMENT/CALRPT/CALIBRPT.PDF.
