      <Description>    Cassini Ephemeris are calculated by Joseph Groene of University of Iowa based on CASSINI SPICE kernels. All data are taken from Joseph Groene site
       Ephemeris are presented in geographic Saturn barycentric coordinates and include
        Western Longitude_IAU,
        based on the Voyager determination of the period of Saturn kilometric radiation (SKR).

        Western Longitude_SLS3,
        based on Cassini SKR measurements.
        The SLS3 longitude system is only valid for time period: 01.01.2004 - 10.08.2007.
