In the PWB (yes, we still run it) and System III versions of Unix for
the 11/70, there were two astronomy-related programs, 'sky', - an
automated ephemeris for the moon, major planets, and stars - and 'azel',
which would generate sky positions for satellites, given their orbital
elements. Unfortunately, the distribution did NOT include all the
data files for them, and neither works. Since they were "games", no
source was ever distributed. I am looking for either
1) the missing data to make these programs work;
2) similar astronomy programs which do work.
If others are interested, I will post the results of my search.
