Abstract This dataset contains ROSETTA NAVCAM RAW DATA of the Extension 2 Phase from 3rd May 2016 to 31st May 2016 when at the vicinity of target 67P/CG. This data set V1.1 supersedes the V1.0. It includes updates of the Browse images, clarification of calibration target, document updates and resolve other minor outstanding errata.
Description Data Set history: This data set is version V1.1. The changes from the V1.0 are listed below: - Full size BROWSE images - target names and types revised, mainly for 'CALIBRATION' of V1.0 - correction in min/max pixel value which affected some images - updated EAICD version Data Set Overview: The data from the Rosetta Navigation Camera (NavCam) was extracted by Bernhard Geiger; the data set was constructed and submitted by Maud Barthelemy on behalf of the Planetary Science Archives (PSA). The data have been observed and measured from 3rd May 2016 to 31st May 2016. The frequency of the navigation slots was of one 2x2 raster every five hours, with interruption by manoeuvres. 502 navigation images were taken. In addition 38 context images and 5 calibration ones were taken, which makes a total of 545 images. There were 6 navigation images lost due to ground station issues. 6 navigation rasters (24 images) were not acquired after the safe mode on 28th May 2016. 7 navigation images were taken with lost rows due to ground station problems. There is no lost or incomplete context images. The orbiter was in bound orbits in the terminator plane. The orbits were elliptical at a distance of 19X10km. Then, the orbiter went into 10km circular orbits. The distance was then reduced to 7km from the nucleus centre. At the end of the period the orbiter started a transition to a mapping orbit at 17km. All images in this data set are raw and uncalibrated data taken using the imaging mode. The data set contains images resolved using both NavCams onboard the Rosetta S/C and the DATA directory is organised to reflect this with two sub directories: - CAM1 - CAM2 CAM...

The spacecraft carries a Rosetta Lander, named Philae, to the nucleus and deploys it onto its surface. A brief description of the mission and its objectives can be found in [GLASSMEIERETAL2007A]. A detailed description of the mission analysis can be found in the ROSETTA User Manual [RO-DSS-MA-1001], and the flight Operations Plan [RO-ESC-PL-5000]. On its long way to the comet nucleus after a Launch by Ariane 5 P1+ in March 2004, the ROSETTA spacecraft orbited the Sun fo...
