turned. Together, the NAIF ID 
              code of the body and the item name combine to form a 
              kernel variable name, e.g., 
 
                 &quot;BODY599_RADII&quot;      
                 &quot;BODY401_POLE_RA&quot;  
 
              The values associated with the kernel variable having 
              the name constructed as shown are sought.  Below 
              we'll take the shortcut of calling this kernel variable 
              the &quot;requested kernel variable.&quot;
