Looking for A Planetary Calculator...

Post #1by Dollan » 19.04.2005, 01:22

Actually, an *online* calculator, and one geered towards determining the values of planetary mass, density, surface gravity, perhaps even mean surface temperature and year length. I have the hard calculations... somewhere. In my horrific mess of an office, they could be anywhere...

Anyone know if there are such online calculators?

hi dollan, this is my old post:

"have found there links:

http://www.bumply.com/astro.htm#1
http://inkido.indiana.edu/a100/a100_ellipse.html
http://www.stardestroyer.net/Empire/Tec ... lator.html
http://www.stardestroyer.net/Empire/Science/Star.html

the first two are more accurate, the last two, less accurate (like phisics)
now I'm at job but at 7.00 pm (central europe hour...) I'm at home and I will search more files (somebody xls files...) "

ok?
