General information about SPICE FRAMES kernels                                
==============================================                                
                                                                              
   In the SPICE system, FRAMES kernel contains a set of information           
   required to define various frames used in a particular mission,            
   sources of orientation and origin location information for these           
   frames and inter-connections between these frames and other frames         
   supported within the SPICE system.                                         
                                                                              
   The NEAR Mission  predicated the Eros body-fixed FK kernel.  Other         
   frames exist in the instrument kernel for each instrument.
