PDS Archive for SPICE Data

Missions for which NAIF has archived some or all of the SPICE data are listed in the table below. Click on aareadme in the Archive Overview column to bring up an overview of the SPICE archive volume for that mission. The aareadme's that are in HTML format (most of them) include direct links to the various descriptive documents. Click on the Volume FTP Link to jump to the top of the volume - the point from which you can browse the volume contents. The archived data go only as far as the "Stop Time" shown in the table, which is typically three to twelve months behind "real time" for missions that are ongoing. If you need more recent data you need to go to the Operational Flight Project Kernels link. To download the data set use the URL of the Volume FTP Link in wget or a similar download utility, such as FileZilla. See download help for helpful suggestions. (Note: SPICE data for the NEAR project are currently available only from the PDS' Small Bodies Node.)
