description
This file contains Ulysses positions in Sys 3 coordinates and a local time to provide a sun reference. Positions are in 60 second samples for the entire interval. Times coincide with the 60 second averaged MAG data provided to the PDS/PPI node by the Ulysses MAG team.

description
This product, SPK28_45.TAB, was released as part of the PDS3 ULY-J-EPHEM-6-SUMM-SYS3/ECL50-V1.0 data set. This product was originally a partial of the remake of the PDS volume ULY_5001 that was produced for the ESA Special Publication 1230. The metadata have been migrated to PDS4. The data themselves are unchanged.

description
These data were generated from Ulysses SPICE at the PDS/PPI node (UCLA). SPICE uses the latest IAU conventions as the Jovian physical constants. The values used in this case were those cited in the 1991 IAU report. The value used for 1 RJ = 71492 km. Therefore the position values for these two versions differ slightly because this variation utilizes the IAU conventions as the Jovian physical constants rather than the parameters extracted from the final SEDR.
