      The CATALOG directory contains mission, host, instrument, reference,    
personnel, and data set PDS catalog objects for this archive volume.  The     
files follow the 'streamlined' format adopted by the Planetary Data System    
(PDS) in late 1993 and documented in the Planetary Data System Standards      
Reference (Version 3.1, 3 August 1994; JPL D-7669, Part 2).                   
                                                                              
     The files evolved as the mission progressed; users should refer to the   
files on the most recent (highest numbered) archive volume for the most       
up-to-date information.  Files on early volumes may be only 'place-holders.'  
                                                                              
     Each catalog object is in ASCII; the files have a fixed length of
72 characters per line. Some files have variable lengths of rows. The details
and correct values can be found in the label header. Each line is delimited 
with a carriage-return (ASCII 13) line-feed (ASCII 10) pair.               
                                                                              
     The files are:
