KPL/MK Meta-kernel for VENUS EXPRESS Dataset v101 -- Operational 20231027_001 ============================================================================ This meta-kernel lists the VENUS EXPRESS SPICE kernels that provide information for the full mission. This set of files and the order in which they are listed were picked to provide the best available data and the most complete coverage for the specified year based on the information about the kernels available at the time this meta-kernel was made. For detailed information about the kernels listed below refer to the internal comments included in the kernels and the documentation accompanying the VENUS EXPRESS SPICE kernel dataset. Usage of the Meta-kernel --------------------------------------------------------------------------- This file is used by the SPICE system as follows: programs that make use of this kernel must "load" the kernel normally during program initialization. Loading the kernel associates the data items with their names in a data structure called the "kernel pool". The SPICELIB routine FURNSH loads a kernel into the pool. The kernels listed below can be obtained from the ESA SPICE Web server: https://spiftp.esac.esa.int/data/SPICE/VENUS-EXPRESS/kernels/ or from the ESA SPICE FTP server: ftp://spiftp.esac.esa.int/data/SPICE/VENUS-EXPRESS/kernels/ Implementation Notes --------------------------------------------------------------------------- It is recommended that users make a local copy of this file and modify the value of the PATH_VALUES keyword to point to the actual location of the VENUS EXPRESS SPICE data set's ``data'' directory on their system. Replacing ``/'' with ``\'' and converting line terminators to the format native to the user's system may also be required if this meta-kernel is to be used on a non-UNIX workstation. ------------------- This file was created on October 27, 2023 by Alfredo Escalante Lopez ESA/ESAC.
