Method Detail

doneLoading

void doneLoading(java.lang.Object... params)

Initializes the coordinates object

Parameters:

params -

getEclipticSphericalCoordinates

Vector3d getEclipticSphericalCoordinates(java.time.Instant instant,
                                         Vector3d out)

Returns the ecliptic coordinates of the body in the out vector for the given date.

Parameters:

instant - The instant.

out - The out vector with the ecliptic coordinates in internal units.

Returns:

The out vector for chaining.

getEclipticCartesianCoordinates

Vector3d getEclipticCartesianCoordinates(java.time.Instant instant,
                                         Vector3d out)

Gets ecliptic cartesian coordinates for the given date.

Parameters:

instant - The instant.

out - The out vector where the ecliptic cartesian coordinates will be.

Returns:

The out vector for chaining, or null if the date is out of range, in case of non elliptical orbits such as Gaia.

getEquatorialCartesianCoordinates

Vector3d getEquatorialCartesianCoordinates(java.time.Instant instant,
                                           Vector3d out)

Gets equatorial cartesian coordinates for the given date.

Parameters:

instant - The instant.

out - The out vector where the equatorial cartesian coordinates will be.

Returns:

The out vector for chaining, or null if the date is out of range, in case of non elliptical orbits such as Gaia.

getOrbitObject

Orbit getOrbitObject()

Gets the orbit object of these coordinates, if any.

Returns:
