no picture available	Christophe David's Astronomical Algorithms Description: Astronomical Algorithms is a FREE portable ANSI C implementation of some of the algorithms published in «Astronomical Algorithms» by Jean Meeus. Documentation included. Added on: 08-Aug-2003 hits: 564Report broken link \| Details
no picture available	How to compute planetary positions Description: Description of how to compute the positions in the sky of the Sun, Moon and the major planets out to Neptune. Positions of other celestial bodies as well (i.e. comets and asteroids) can also be computed, if their orbital elements are available.
