Source data for sol overview and documents

Featured Replies

Where do these documents come from? The PDS archives have nothing of the sort.

Great question. The sol documents you refer to are the Mission Manager and Documentarian reports that provide a view into science operations—insight into why and how particular observations were made. The reports have not been edited except for grammar and spelling, and to remove spacecraft and instrument sensitive materials. 

As you note, the sol documents are not part of the formal science archive. They are provided courtesy of the respective mission science teams who approve the content. Separate from the sol documents are mission and data set documents that are collected from archive bundles and volumes and are designed to promote understanding off the mission, spacecraft, instruments, and data formats.

I have updated the online help to include a more detailed description of sol documents, highlighting the fact that they are not part of the formal archive.

Is the Analyst's Notebook only public facing source for these documents? Are they available from elsewhere too?

Thank you for your answer!
