The spacecraft and instrument description document is a collection of HTML documents which describe the various subsystems on the spacecraft as well as a description of each of the science instruments on the spacecraft. This document can be found in the DOCUMENT/SCDESC directory, starting with SCDESC.HTM. The calibration logs, in the DOCUMENT/NCLOGS directory, show the information that was collected regarding each image during the calibration process. The original logs were recorded by hand and can be found in the DOCUMENT/NCLOGS/ORIGINAL directory. Because of the nature of the recording method, typographical errors were inevitable. During the processing of the calibration data, these errors were discovered and corrected. The corrected logfiles can be found in the DOCUMENT/NCLOGS/CORRECTED directory. The calibration document is a collection of a large variety of information regarding the characteristics and behaviour of the STARDUST Navigation camera, as well as the characteristics of the optics and reflecting surfaces. This report is listed as a single PDF file, suitable for viewing with Adobe Acrobat. The report can be found in DOCUMENT/CALRPT/CALRPT.PDF. The catalog/ subdirectory was added as the data were being prepared for safing under PDS3, to hold early drafts of mission catalog files that were subsequently rewritten. This was done largely to avoid conflicts and accidental overwriting of the finished mission catalog files when these safed data were added to the catalog database.
