LP MOON SPACECRAFT EPHEMERIS V1.0

The Lunar Prospector ephemeris data set consists of spacecraft position and velocity determinations as a function of time in Moon-centered, Earth equator, mean of J2000 coordinates. Tracking data collected by ground stations are used by the Goddard Flight Dynamics Analysis Branch (FDAB) to compute the Lunar Prospector orbit ephemeris. The Level 0 Data archive contains the ephemeris type known as the 'definitive ephemeris', which is based on an updated lunar gravity model [FDAB1997].
