Guest kepler Posted October 8, 2004 Posted October 8, 2004 Hi, I have sort of a problem: I have a routine to calculate the geometric place of the bodies in our solar system. But the question is that the results are referred to the J2000 epoch frame. I was trying to convert the vector [ x,y,z,vx,vy,vz ] from the J2000 epoch to one TDB choosen epoch, correcting the values for precession and nutation, getting [ x',y',z',vx',vy',vz' ]; and then, convert this result vector to the ecliptic plane, obtaining a new vector [ x",y",z",vx",vy",vz" ]. Does anyone knows the routines to make this calculation? Please answer as soon as possible - this is very urgent. Kind regards, Kepler
