Abstract
Tracking operations during the Mariner 10 Venus encounter phase were strongly impacted by the first critical phase usage of the Block IV S- and X-band receivers, the relatively new digitally controlled oscillators, and the large uncertainties associated with the Venusian atmosphere. This report describes the pre-encounter planning and subsequent analysis of tracking operations during the Mariner 10 Venus Encounter phase.
