Orientation constants for Asteroid 21 Lutetia
--------------------------------------------------------
 
     The inertial reference frame for these constants is J2000; this is
     the default reference frame for PCK orientation data.
 
     The epoch of the constants is J2000; this is Julian ephemeris date
     (JED) 2451545.0.
 
     The NAIF integer code for Asteroid 21 Lutetia is 2000021. See the
     NAIF_IDs required reading for further information on NAIF integer
     codes.
 
     According to radar solution 2 provided in [3] the asteroid
     pole direction is specified by the following ecliptic longitude
     and latitude:

        lon =  48 +/- 11 deg.
        lat =   5 +/-  5 deg.

     The W1 term was set to correspond to the period of 8.17 +/- 0.01 hours
     ([3]). The W0 term is arbitrarily set to 0.
