Instructions

This service facilitates downloading to and accessing on the user's host a subset of SPICE kernels from the specified SPICE PDS archive covering the specified time interval. It uses the kernel coverage information from the PDS3 index file or PDS4 labels and meta-kernels (also known as ``furnsh'' kernels) from the archive to generate one or more ``subset'' meta-kernels listing only kernels with coverage intersecting the specified time interval. This service also generates a text file containing the URLs of the kernels listed in the ``subset'' meta-kernels, to allow a bulk download of these kernels to the user's host using the ``wget'' utility.
