Method Detail

getMercury

@Nonnull
public static Point getMercury()

Gets a point describing the motion of Mercury according to the equations described in section 6.

getVenus

@Nonnull
public static Point getVenus()

Gets a point describing the motion of Venus according to the equations described in section 6.

getMoon

@Nonnull
public static Point getMoon()

Gets a point describing the position of the moon according to the equations described in section 4.

getEarthMoonBarycenter

@Nonnull
public static Point getEarthMoonBarycenter()

Gets a point describing the motion of the Earth-Moon barycenter according to the equations described in section 6.

public static Point getMars()

Gets a point describing the motion of Mars according to the equations described in section 6.

getJupiter

@Nonnull
public static Point getJupiter()

Gets a point describing the motion of Jupiter according to the equations described in section 6.
