Brief summary -------------------------------------------------------- This directory contains the SPICE C-Kernel (CK) files with PHX cruise and landed orientation as well as CK files providing orientation for the SSI camera and Robotic Arm Camera. The following files are present in this directory. (Only file names are shown; the file name extensions of the binary CK files are always ``.bc'') phx_cruise_sc CK file providing orientation of the PHX cruise frame w.r.t. the MME-of-Date frame for the whole cruise. PHX_rmc_file_NNN CK files providing orientation of the Payload frame w.r.t. to the Local Level frame during surface operations. These files were generated from the corresponding RMC files delivered to ROME by MIPL. The file with the latest version, ``NNN'', supersedes all previous files of this type. phx_surf_ll2p A ``default-name'' copy of the latest ``PHX_rmc_file_NNN.bc'' CK. The companion history file ``phx_surf_ll2p.bc.history'' indicates when this CK was replaced with individual ``PHX_rmc_file_NNN'' CKs. phx_surf_frmp A special CK providing fixed rotation from the Payload frame to the Lander and Cruise frames. It is needed to ``complete'' the frame trees. phx_surf_ssil CK file providing orientation of the SSI Left Eye frame. The orientation in the file is based on the CAHVORE model parameters from the SSI image labels. This file covers the whole period of surface operations and is replaced with a newer, more complete version daily. phx_surf_ssir CK file providing orientation of the SSI Right Eye frame. The orientation in the file is based on the CAHVORE model parameters from the SSI image labels. This file covers the whole period of surface operations and is replaced with a newer, more complete version daily. phx_surf_rac CK file providing orientation of the RA Camera frame. The orientation in the file is based on the CAHVORE model parameters from the RAC image labels. This file covers the whole period of surface operations and is replaced with a newer, more complete version daily. phx_surf_rag CK file providing orientation of the RA Edge frame. The orientation in the file is based on the deflected kinematics data from the RAC image labels. This file covers the whole period of surface operations and is replaced with a newer, more complete version daily. phx_surf_ra CK file providing orientation of the RA joint frames. The orientation in the file is based on the RA joint angle data from the RAC image labels. This file covers the whole period of surface operations and is replaced with a newer, more complete version daily.
