Introduction The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) was the first and flagship mission of NASA's Great Observatories program. Designed to complement the wavelength capabilities of the other spacecraft in the program (CGRO, AXAF, and SIRTF), HST was a 2.4 m, f/24 Ritchey-Chretien telescope capable of performing observations in the visible, near-ultraviolet, and near-infrared (1150 A to 1 mm). The mission was troubled soon after launch by the discovery that the primary mirror was spherically aberrated [sic]. In addition, problems with the solar panels flexing as the spacecraft passed from the Earth's shadow into sunlight caused problems with the pointing stability. Steps were taken to correct these problems, including replacement of the solar panels, replacement of the Wide Field and Planetary Camera with a second-generation version with built-in corrective optics, and replacement of the High-Speed Photometer with COSTAR (Corrective Optics Space Telescope Axial Replacement) to correct the aberration for the remaining instruments, such as the Faint Object Spectrograph." To support the ESA/Rosetta mission, the HST was used to observe comet Wirtanen to determine physical parameters of the object and plan out US led instrument deign for that mission. To this end, data has been gathered from the HST archives as a representative sample. The complete data files are available through MAST at HST (http://archive.stsci.edu). 2. File formats Each label file was created with the fits2pds (f2p) tool provided by the PDS Small Bodies Node. The name convention used is: AXXXNNNNT.BnF .LBL with A indicating the instrument ( in our cases, only U=WFPC2, Y = FOS) where XXX is a unique three character ID starting with a number (3) NNNN is an observation_id and T indicates the transmission was tape recorded To follow PDS standards the "." after the T has been represented by an "_"; follwing that change, B indicates if the data is "raw" or calibrated (D, C respectively) with the n value inditing a sequence of files. The trailing F shows FITS data. These label files point to the corresponding FITS files. 3. Volume contents The files on this volume are organized in one top-level directory with several subdirectories. The following table shows the structure and content of these directories. Int he table, directory names are enclosed in square brackets ([]), upper-case letters indicate an actual directory or file name, and lower-case letters indicate the general form of a set of directory or file names.
