#### Detailed_Input
       handle      is the file handle of an SPK file that has been
                   opened for writing.

       body        is the NAIF integer code for an ephemeris object
                   whose state relative to another body is described
                   by the segment to be created.

       center      is the NAIF integer code for the center of motion
                   of the object identified by body.

       frame       is the NAIF name for a reference frame
                   relative to which the state information for body
                   is specified.

       first,
       last        are, respectively, the start and stop times of
                   the time interval over which the segment defines
                   the state of body.

       segid       is the segment identifier. An SPK segment
                   identifier may contain up to 40 characters.

       degree      is the degree of the Hermite polynomials used to
                   interpolate the states. All components of the
                   state vectors are interpolated by polynomials of
                   fixed degree.

       n           is the number of states in the input state vector
                   array.

       states      contains a time-ordered array of geometric states
                   ( x, y, z, dx/dt, dy/dt, dz/dt, in kilometers and
                   kilometers per second ) of body relative to center,
                   specified relative to frame.

       epochs      is an array of epochs corresponding to the members
                   of the state array. The epochs are specified as
                   seconds past J2000, TDB.
#### Detailed_Output
       None. See -Particulars for a description of the effect of this
       routine.
#### Parameters
       MAXDEG         is the maximum allowed degree of the interpolating
                      polynomial. If the value of MAXDEG is increased,
                      the SPICELIB routine SPKPVN must be changed
                      accordingly. In particular, the size of the
                      record passed to SPKRnn and SPKEnn must be
                      increased, and comments describing the record size
                      must be changed.
#### Exceptions
       If any of the following exceptions occur, this routine will return
       without creating a new segment.

       1)  If `frame' is not a recognized name, the error
           SPICE(INVALIDREFFRAME) is signaled by a routine in the call
           tree of this routine.

       2)  If the last non-blank character of `segid' occurs past index 40,
           the error SPICE(SEGIDTOOLONG) is signaled by a routine in the
           call tree of this routine.

       3)  If `segid' contains any nonprintable characters, the error
           SPICE(NONPRINTABLECHARS) is signaled by a routine in the call
           tree of this routine.

       4)  If `degree' is not at least 1 or is greater than MAXDEG, the
           error SPICE(INVALIDDEGREE) is signaled by a routine in the
           call tree of this routine.

       5)  If `degree' is not odd, the error SPICE(INVALIDDEGREE) is
           signaled by a routine in the call tree of this routine.

       6)  If the number of states `n' is not at least (degree+1)/2, the
           error SPICE(TOOFEWSTATES) is signaled by a routine in the call
           tree of this routine.

       7)  If `first' is greater than or equal to `last', the error
           SPICE(BADDESCRTIMES) is signaled by a routine in the call tree
           of this routine.

       8)  If the elements of the array `epochs' are not in strictly
           increasing order, the error SPICE(TIMESOUTOFORDER) is
           signaled by a routine in the call tree of this routine.

       9)  If the first epoch, epochs[0], is greater than `first', the
           error SPICE(BADDESCRTIMES) is signaled by a routine in the
           call tree of this routine.

       10) If the last epoch, epochs[n-1], is less than `last', the error
           SPICE(BADDESCRTIMES) is signaled by a routine in the call tree
           of this routine.

       11) If any of the `frame' or `segid' input string pointers is
           null, the error SPICE(NULLPOINTER) is signaled.

       12) If any of the `frame' or `segid' input strings has zero
           length, the error SPICE(EMPTYSTRING) is signaled.
#### Files
       A new type 13 SPK segment is written to the SPK file attached
       to HANDLE.
#### Particulars
       This routine writes an SPK type 13 data segment to the open SPK
       file according to the format described in the type 13 section of
       the SPK Required Reading. The SPK file must have been opened with
       write access.
#### Examples
       The numerical results shown for this example may differ across
       platforms. The results depend on the SPICE kernels used as
       input, the compiler and supporting libraries, and the machine
       specific arithmetic implementation.

       1) Suppose that you have a time-ordered array of geometric states
          of a new object that follows Phobos, with a delay of 1 hour,
          in its orbit around Mars and are prepared to produce a segment
          of type 13 in an SPK file. Create a new SPK file with this
          segment. Use an existing SPK to create the input data for the
          SPK segment.

          Use the meta-kernel shown below to load the required SPICE
          kernels.

             This meta-kernel is intended to support operation of SPICE
             example programs. The kernels shown here should not be
             assumed to contain adequate or correct versions of data
             required by SPICE-based user applications.

             In order for an application to use this meta-kernel, the
             kernels referenced here must be present in the user's
             current working directory.

             The names and contents of the kernels referenced
             by this meta-kernel are as follows:
