Simon1994PlanetaryPositions
Contains functions for finding the Cartesian coordinates of the sun and the moon in the Earth-centered inertial frame.
Methods
-
staticSimon1994PlanetaryPositions.ComputeMoonPositionInEarthInertialFrame(julianDate, result) → Cartesian3
-
Computes the position of the Moon in the Earth-centered inertial frame
Name Type Description julianDate
JulianDate optional The time at which to compute the Sun's position, if not provided the current system time is used. result
Cartesian3 optional The object onto which to store the result. Returns:
Calculated moon position -
