I need input regarding the mechanics (mathematics, more like) of celestial
navigation for a computer simulation on a PC (IBM PC-AT). What is required is
a system capable of moving an object to any position in our known universe. Not
so complicated. The complication is the location of bodies (planets, stars, ...)Does anyone have any experience with plotting positions in this regard that
would be useful? Any help would be most appreciated! :-)
