Significant Changes to SHASSA Home Page
19 February 2003
Corrected error in the keyword TIME-OBS on all images.
Through a coding sign error,
all of the values were 5 to 20 minutes too large.
Also clarified the accompanying comment. This value is the mean UT of the first
image of a set, not the mean UT time of the entire set.
