PVO VENUS MAG RESAMPLED SC COORDS 24SEC AVGS V1.0
This dataset contains vectors collected
by the Pioneer Venus Orbiter (previously Pioneer 12) Magnetometer which have
been averaged over 24 seconds on 12 second centers. The data are provided in
spacecraft coordinates whose system has it Z axis antiparallel to the
spacecraft spin axis during orbit. This choice maintained the Z axis
along roughly the Earth's ecliptic north pole. Late in the mission
when it was believed that the shadowing of the solar panels by
the booms was causing a problem, the spin axis was moved to the
pole of the Venus orbital plane.
