The program 'A Moon for the Sun' by John Walker works excellent, but it doesn't calculate the rise and set times of the moon. A dutch self-made astronomer, Eise Eisinga, has made his made his own orrery using gear-wheels in the 17th(?) century. This orrery actually calculates these rise and set times for the moon (quite accurately). Is there anyone on the net, who has a program (in whatever language) that calculates rise and set times of the moon (given latitude and longitude). Thanks in advance. -- Paul Coelen (coelen@cst.prl.philips.nl) Centre for Software Technology ( or try: ...!mcvax!philmds!prle!cst!coelen)
