Finally, the Pioneer 11 flyby of Saturn events (planned).
Times are evidently Spacecraft Event Time (SCET), UTC. No possibility to calculate the planned pericenter time from these data. 1979 Aug 27 Tp-128h 32m = 08:02 - Phoebe, 9453000 km 1979 Aug 29 Tp-82h 29m = 06:05 - Iapetus, 1039000 km 1979 Aug 31 Tp-28h 03m = 12:31 - Hyperion, 674000 km 1979 Sep 01 Tp-01h 59m = 14:35 - Descending node Tp-01h 25m = 15:09 - Approach to rings from below Tp-00h 30m = 16:04 - Dione, 291100 km Tp-00h 07m = 16:27 - Dione, 291100 km Tp-00h 00m = 16:34 - Pericenter, H=21400 km Tp+00h 01m 30s = 16:35 - Saturn occultation entry Tp+00h 02m = 16:35:57 - Saturn shadow entry Tp+01h 20m = 17:53:32 - Saturn occultation exit Tp+01h 21m = 17:54:47 - Saturn shadow exit Tp+01h 31m = 18:05 - Departure fron rings Tp+01h 54m = 18:28 - Tethys, 331700 km Tp+01h 59m = 18:33 - Ascending node Tp+01h 59m = 18:33 - Enceladus, 225200 km Tp+06h 00m = 22:34 - Rhea, 341900 km 1979 Sep 02 Tp+25h 30m = 18:05 - Titan, 356000 km Note: for that day, ET = UTC + 50.184 sec, and ERT = SCET + 86 min 21 sec. |
