This kernel defines the earth stations at Goldstone CA,
Madrid Spain, Canberra Australia, and Usuda Japan.
 
It was created by Bill Taber on October 18, 1995 for
use by the Near Earth Asteroid Rendevous mission (NEAR)
 
    -------------- IMPORTANT NOTE --------------
 
To use this SPK file with any other ephemeris file YOU MUST
LOAD A TEXT PLANETARY CONSTANTS FILE (PCK) that gives the
orientation of the earth with respect to J2000 as a function
of time.
 
The coordinates of the sites are taken from the NASA directory of
station locations.  The satellite tracking and data network (STDN)
codes for these locations are:
 
   GOLDSTONE  --- MADR
   CANBERRA   --- HSKD
   MADRID     --- MADD
   USUDA      --- USUD
 
Note: we report locations only to the nearest meter even though
centermeter level knowledge is recorded in the station location
directory. Also, although the coordinates used are for particular
tracking stations at the various sites, it is intended that these
locations refer only to particular geographical regions.  For all
stations within these geographical regions, the light time to
a spacecraft or other object is the same to within 0.0001 seconds.
