The MAVEN load routines assume that if the start/end times are integers, they should be interpreted as orbit numbers. But it
doesn't seem to be working.

The MAVEN load routines assume that if the start/end times are integers, they should be interpreted as orbit numbers. But it doesn't seem to be working.
To convert orbit numbers to times, there are routines that download and merge orbit files from http://naif.jpl.nasa.gov/pub/naif/MAVEN/kernels/spk/
Orbit files are being downloaded, but the code seems to be looking in the wrong directory when it tries to read them.
