XYZ Trajectorys

Post #1by lithium3 » 25.08.2009, 00:32

Does anyone know of a XYZ editor. I would like to make more trajectories but it's so time consuming.
Any help would be appreciated. :?:

xyz trajectory information for real spacecraft is available from the JPL Horizons ephemeris server.
http://ssd.jpl.nasa.gov/?horizons
JPL calculates the positions from information provided by the individual research project teams.
