This directory provides the ephemeris data in both Heliographic (RTN) and System III (1965, right handed) coordinates during the Voyager 2 Jupiter encounter between 6/20/79 and 8/18/79. There are two versions of the ephemeris data available. One was generated by the Voyager MAG team from Voyager 2 SEDR (SEDR_HG_96S.TAB and SEDR_S3_96S.TAB), the other, produced by the PDS/PPI node using Voyager 2 SPICE (SPICE_HG_48S.TAB and SPICE_S3_48S.TAB). Data in RTN cover a time period of 6/20/79-8/18/79, and data in System III, for 7/5/79-8/12/79. Voyager 2 Jupiter Flyby Trajectory Overview plots are also provided in X-Y, X-Z, and Y-Z planes. Jupiter has a spin period of 10 hours.
