irfpy.pep.galileo_spice
¶
Replaces galileo_orbit
.
The Galileo orbit information from SPICE in Galileo PDS.
The files are downloaded via web interface of PDS.
The kernel is not in the repository, because they are very large in size
and this may not used for future investigations.
Thus, the kernel files should be prepared differently.
Refer to Futaana for this with statement Futaana to refer to folder 111125-juice-orbit.`
Todo
Full re-implementation!! Thus, no doctests are done.!!!
Todo
Archive the data, not in the repository but not in the master repository. Some other way is better.
