LISA Pathfinder Spacecraft Frames Kernel ============================================================================= This frame kernel contains NAIF ID/name mapping for the LISA Pathfinder science instruments and s/c structures. Version and Date ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 0.0 -- July 2, 2019 -- Marc Costa Sitja, ESAC/ESA Preliminary Version. Only ID definitions.

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 as shown below: FORTRAN: (SPICELIB) CALL FURNSH ( frame_kernel_name ) C: (CSPICE) furnsh_c ( frame_kernel_name ); IDL: (ICY) cspice_furnsh, frame_kernel_name MATLAB: (MICE) cspice_furnsh ( 'frame_kernel_name' ) PYTHON: (SPICEYPY)* furnsh( frame_kernel_name ) In order for a program or routine to extract data from the pool, the SPICELIB routines GDPOOL, GIPOOL, and GCPOOL are used. See [2] for more details. This file was created and may be updated with a text editor or word processor. * SPICEPY is a non-official, community developed Python wrapper for the NAIF SPICE toolkit. Its development is managed on Github. It is available at: https://github.com/AndrewAnnex/SpiceyPy LISA Pathfinder Mission NAIF ID Codes ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- The following names and NAIF ID codes are assigned to the LISA Pathfinder spacecraft, its structures and science instruments (the keywords implementing these definitions are located in the section "LISA Pathfinder Mission NAIF ID Codes -- Definition Section" at the end of this file): LISA Pathfinder Spacecraft and Spacecraft Structures names/IDs: LPF -118 (synonym: LISA PATHFINDER) LISA Pathfinder NAIF ID Codes to Name Mapping ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This section contains name to NAIF ID mappings for the LISA Pathfinder mission. Once the contents of this file is loaded into the KERNEL POOL, these mappings become available within SPICE, making it possible to use names instead of ID code in the high level SPICE routine calls.
