This data set consists of hourly averaged interplanetary plasma parameter data on one blocked, BCD magnetic tape that was generated by the experimenter on an IBM 360. The block size is 1600 characters, with a logical record size of 80 characters. Each logical record contains one set of hourly averaged interplanetary plasma parameters including the averaged thermal speed, the averaged number density, the averaged GSE longitude and latitude of the solar wind flow direction, and the corresponding standard deviations of each of the averages. The data are time ordered. Blocks of zeros have been included where it is not known if the spacecraft was interplanetary. Data records on the tape begin at the start of a solar rotation, on July 1, 1966, but records are filled with zeros until after spacecraft launch.
