ROSETTA-ORBITER 67P/CAL ALICE: UV Spectrometer Data from Prelanding Phase

CODMAC Level 4 data acquired by the Rosetta Orbiter ALICE UV Spectrometer during the comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko Prelanding mission phase. The data collection occurred between 2014-01-21 and 2014-11-19. This V3.0 data set supersedes the previous V2.0 version with improved browse products and documentation.

Use Cases

• Analyzing ultraviolet spectra of comet 67P based on spectrometer readings.
• Studying comet surface and coma composition during the prelanding phase.
• Comparing spectral data across the 2014 observation period.
• Validating and improving models of comet behavior using calibrated Level 4 data.

Strengths

• Data covers a specific mission phase from 2014-01-21 to 2014-11-19.
• Version 3.0 supersedes V2.0 with improved browse products and documentation.
• Data is calibrated to CODMAC Level 4 standard.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
