Iau2015OrientationComputeMoon Method |
Compute the
IauOrientationParameters for the Moon.
The IAU 2015 report did not provide orientation formulae because they are only accurate to approximately 150 m.
This class will provide the orientation parameters from the 2009 report.
For higher fidelity, consider using a lunar ephemeris, such as
JplDE, and deriving orientation.
