Tools Astrocalculator Planet Coordinates module The Planet Coordinates calculator module Planet Coordinates The Planet Coordinates module computes positional data for any major solar system body, for any time and date and any geographic location. Simply select from the Solar system body: drop-down list, and specify the desired date, time, and geographic coordinates (these values are preset to the current &kstars; settings). Then the Equatorial, Horizontal, and Ecliptic coordinates of the body are computed and displayed. There is a batch mode for this module. You must construct an input file in which each line specifies values for the input parameters (solar system body, date, time, longitude, and latitude). You may choose to specify a constant value for some of the parameters in the calculator window (these parameters should be skipped in the input file). You may also specify which of the output parameters (Equatorial, Horizontal, Heliocentric ecliptic and Geocentric ecliptic coordinates) should be calculated. Finally, specify the input and output filenames, and press the Run button to generate the output file with the computed values.
