6178 1986 DA

[the-isz]

Quick question (new to Celestia).

I looked through the add-ons, but didn't see one for asteroid 6178 1986 DA.
Can anyone tell me if this has been created? It's kind of an obscure one, but I'm on a writing project and am looking for data on where this asteroid will be located on a specific date.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

If an add-on of the sort doesn't exist, it should be fairly easy to create one using data from the JPL Small Body Database.

If you need help translating their orbital acronyms into Celestia's SSC keywords, a table showing the equivalents is available at http://www.lepp.cornell.edu/~seb/celest ... s.html#2.0

I haven't worked with the add-on feature, but will give it a go.

Thanks!
