CSPICE-SPACIT(1)

NAME
cspice-spacit - manipulate and examine SPICE binary kernels

SYNOPSIS
cspice spacit

DESCRIPTION
SPACIT is an interactive menu driven program which provides a collection of services useful for manipulating and examining SPICE binary kernel files. The program may be used to convert SPICE binary kernel files into equivalent ASCII files, called SPICE transfer files, and to convert the SPICE transfer files back to binary. SPACIT may also be used to summarize the information contained in SPICE binary kernel files and to read the comments contained in the comment area of a SPICE binary kernel file.

The SPACIT program currently supports the CK, EK, PCK, and SPK SPICE binary kernel file formats.

In addition to SPICE binary kernel files, SPACIT requires additional SPICE files when used to summarize a binary kernel file. A leap seconds kernel is required for summarizing CK, EK, PCK and SPK binary kernel files. A SCLK kernel is required for summarizing binary CK files.

SPACIT is part of the CSPICE Toolkit. See cspice(7) for more information.
