Abstract: This data set contains Level 2/3 (EDR/RDR) data collected by the Dust Flux Monitor Instrument (DFMI) during the Stardust-NExT mission from January, 2007, through cruise, approach to and encounter with comet 9P/Tempel 1, and up to end of mission in March, 2011. The Tempel 1 encounter data span a ~40 minute period. The RDR data convert the EDR (raw) sensor data, from the entire comet encounter, to dust fluences at each of twelve mass thresholds.
