         <description>This is the BepiColombo orbit number files produced by NAIF's ORBNUM utility program. Each of the records contains the time of THAT orbit's apocenter and the time of the NEXT orbit's pericenter. For example, the line for orbit '3' provide UTC and SCLK of orbit '3' apocenter and UTC of orbit '4' pericenter.
   
   Orbit number 1 corresponds to the first science phase orbit. This is derived from the BepicColombo Space to Ground Interface Control Document - Volume:    
      Flight Dynamics Events File (BC-ESC-IF-50002): "Orbit numbers are incremented by one with each apocentre passage starting from the first apocentre after orbit insertion.""    
                                                                               
   All derived quantities provided on each record -- sub-solar lon/lat, sub-spacecraft lon/lat/alt, and orbital elements -- are computed for the time of apocenter.</description>
