This data set, supplied by the experimenter, consists of a binary magnetic tape that was produced on an IBM 7094 computer system and used to record the Doppler radio tracking data from Pioneer 6. The data are range, range rate, elevation, azimuth, declination, right ascension, one-, two-, and three-way Doppler in cycles per second, time resolver, range units, and planetary range units. The frequency of the data points appearing on the tape varies from one point per min to one point every 10 min.
