General information about SPICE LS-kernels
==========================================

   In the SPICE system, the Leapsecond (LSK) -Kernel contains a
   tabulation of leapseconds and the values of other constants required
   to perform a transformation between Universal Time Coordinated (UTC)
   and Ephemeris time (ET). Leapseconds occur only at the New Year or
   the end of June. The user should check with NAIF/JPL regularly to
   keep up to date about leapseconds.

   The information in an LSK file can be manipulated by a collection of
   subroutines that are part of the SPICELIB library, the major component
   of the SPICE Toolkit. These subroutines can be integrated into a
   user's application programs. Information about obtaining the SPICE
   Toolkit is located in the ``software'' subdirectory of the main
   directory of this dataset.

   Refer to the Time Required Reading (time.req) document provided with
   the toolkit or available from the NAIF Node of the PDS, to get more
   information about time conversions supported within the SPICE
   system.


SELENE LS-kernels Contained in This Data Set
============================================

   The following LSK file is provided is this data set:

      naifVVVV.tls

   where VVVV is the file version. The latest LSK file supersedes all
   previous versions.

   This latest file is the latest generic SPICE LSK file distributed by
   NAIF/JPL at the time this data set was created.

   All LSK files provided in this data set are in UNIX text format,
   with a line feed character (ASCII 10) at the end of the line.


Kernel File Details
===================

   The most detailed description of the data in an LSK file is provided
   in metadata included inside the descriptive text areas within the
   file. This information can be viewed using any text editor.
