     The CATALOG directory contains target, instrument, 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).                                           
                                                                              
     Each catalog object is in ASCII, with a maximum of 80 characters per line
delimited with a carriage-return (ASCII 13) line-feed (ASCII 10), as follows:
