Frame Files

The Parker Solar Probe (PSP) mission is providing a full set of SPICE kernels for use with the mission data. If you are unfamiliar with SPICE kernels, please see the JPL Navigation and Ancillary Information Facility (NAIF) SPICE page, available at URL: https://naif.jpl.nasa.gov/naif/. NAIF offers a set of tutorials and access to the SPICE software at the left of the webpage.

Frames Kernels (FK)


Mission Frame Kernel

File Naming Convention - spp_vNNN.tf (where NNNN is the PSP assigned version number)

Description - The kernel contains definitions of and specification of relationships between reference frames. This frame kernel contains the current set of coordinate frame definitions for the Parker Solar Probe spacecraft, structures, and science instruments. The kernel is produced by the PSP mission.


Analysis Frame Kernel

File Naming Convention - spp_dyn_vNNN.tf (where NNNN is the PSP assigned version number).

Description - The kernel contains definitions of and specification of relationships between reference frames. This kernel contains SPICE frame definitions to support the Parker Solar Probe mission science data analysis needs. The kernel is produced by the PSP mission..


Instrument Kernel (IK).

File Naming Convention - spp__vNNN.ti (where NNNN is the PSP assigned version number).

Description - Instrument field of view size, shape and orientation. This instrument kernel contains references to mounting alignment, operating modes, and timing as well as internal and field-of-view geometry for the Solar Probe Plus instruments. The kernel is produced by the PSP mission..
