Re: [O] Solar orbit statistics and your agenda

Eric:

I was able to access the API docs (requiring, with my Firefox, to accept a security exception.)

https://aa.usno.navy.mil/data/docs/api.php

I have to move on.  I have found that XEphem's Moon declination output is excellent, so I only have to convert the time format.

Thank you for your help,

Alan

Hello, Eric:

Since I don't need to automate anything or directly pipe the data into any other processes, I have taken a leap of faith and used the JPL Horizons Ephemeris Web interface to generate an ephemeris for the Moon's (they say "Luna"---nice!) declination.  This I can edit wtih Emacs to get the data I need. 

Had I time enough, it would be cool to interface that in a more interesting way. 

Thank you for the advice. 

Alan

I did not see anything related to lunar data.  Maybe elsewhere on the site?
