Bepi-Colombo MPO Spacecraft SCLK File  FICTIONAL
===========================================================================

   This file is a SPICE spacecraft clock (SCLK) kernel containing
   information required for the BepiColombo Mercury Planetary Orbiter
   (MPO) spacecraft on-board clock to UTC conversion.

   This file contains the data necessary for converting from ET to
   ticks for the FICTIONAL MPO spacecraft clock (clock ID code 121)

   This is intended for study purposes or for those situations in which
   a clock is not available for the structure whose orientation will be
   modelled by a C-kernel.


Production/History of this SCLK file
--------------------------------------------------------

   Version 0.2 -- October 19, 2018 -- Marc Costa Sitja, ESAC/ESA

      Generated new Fictional SCLK to align it with the preliminary
      step SCLK.

   Version 0.1 -- July 05, 2016 -- Marc Costa Sitja, ESAC/ESA

      Updated the file text.

   Version 0.0 -- December 22, 2014 -- Jonathan McAuliffe, ESAC/ESA

      Initial release.

Usage
--------------------------------------------------------

   This file must be loaded into the user's program by a call to the
   FURNSH subroutine

          CALL FURNSH ( 'this_file_name; )    -- FORTRAN
          furnsh_c ( "this_file_name" );      -- C
          cspice_furnsh, 'this_file_name'     -- IDL
          cspice_furnsh( 'this_file_name' )   -- MATLAB
          spiceypy.furnsh( 'this_file_name' ) -- PYTHON

   in order to use the SPICELIB SCLK family of subroutines to convert
   MPO_SPACECRAFT spacecraft on-board clock to ET and vice versa.


SCLK Format
--------------------------------------------------------

   The on-board clock, the conversion for which is provided by this SCLK
   file, consists of two fields:

          SSSSSSSSSS.FFFFF

   where:

          SSSSSSSSSS -- count of on-board seconds

          FFFFF      -- count of fractions of a second with one fraction
                        being 1/65536 of a second; normally this field value
                        is within 0..65536 range.

Kernel DATA
--------------------------------------------------------

   This SCLK file is constructed so that the valid SCLK strings are
   simply the number of TDB seconds that have passed since the Ephemeris
   epoch 2022-MAY-31-23:59:59.999. Thus 1/288929292.8201 simply
   represents the epoch that occurs 288929292.12514 TDB seconds past the
   ET epoch 2022-MAY-31-23:59:59.999.

   For all time, the clock runs at the same rate as TDB. There is only
   one partition for this clock.
