LADEE LS-Kernels ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Version 1.0; September 24, 2014 General Information About SPICE LS-Kernels ========================================== In the SPICE system, Leapsecond (or LS) -kernel contains the leapseconds and the values of physical constants required to perform a transformation between Universal Time Coordinated (UTC) and Ephemeris time (ET). The information in an LSK file can be manipulated in conjunction with other data using the SPICE Toolkit APIs, calls to which can be integrated into user application programs. The SPICE system toolkit for a number of languages and computer platforms can be obtained from the NAIF web site (http://naif.jpl.nasa.gov/). Refer to the ``time.req'' document provided with the toolkit to get more information about time conversions supported within the SPICE system. LADEE LS-Kernels Contained in This Archive ========================================== The following LADEE LS-kernels are provided in this archive: naif0010.tls the generic LSK file containing leap second data up to July 1, 2012. If more than one LSK file is present in this directory, the LSK with the latest version supersedes all LSKs with earlier versions. Kernel File Details =================== The most detailed description of the data in an LSK file is provided in metadata included inside the description area of the file. This information can be viewed using any text editor program.
