This is a multi-step process at least at the moment.
Check the header of one of your BCD files and look for the keyword 'CREATOR'. (e.g., imhead blah_bcd.fits | grep CREATOR) This is the software version used to process your data.

How to reference a Dataset ID in your journal articles
Guidelines for publication acknowledgments.
The 'This proposal cannot be updated.' error occurs when you try to
use the Proposal Submission Tool in Spot to update the AORs for a
program that has already been approved. The Proposal Submission Tool
is only for modifying AORs before the final call for...
DO YOU HAVE A REALLY GOOD REASON FOR WANTING TO DO THIS? We do allow
observations longer then 24 hours if scientifically justified, but we

Yes, for Archival or General Observer proposals, modest support for ground-based observations is allowed. One should not exceed 10-20% of the total requested/provided funds for such a component.
As part of the closeout for the Spitzer cryogenic mission custody of Spitzer documentation was transferred from the Spitzer Science Center to the Infrared Science Archive (IRSA) in April of 2011. However some information needed to run the warm mission was...
There are three characteristics that distinguish the Spitzer Legacy
Science Program from GO investigations:
* They must be _large coherent_ science investigations, not
reproducible by any reasonable number or combination of smaller
General Observer pro...
In a nutshell, DATE_OBS is the most accurate, absolute measurement
for comparing with astronomical emphemerides. SCLK_OBS (in real sec)
is good for relative timing comparisons within an AOR or even a
campaign.
More words on this:
* DATE_OBS value...
Here is a handy chart to explain the differences between the various
