  • Method Details

    • doneLoading

      void doneLoading(Object... params)
      Initializes the coordinates object
      Parameters:
      params - The parameter objects.

    • getEclipticSphericalCoordinates

      Vector3b getEclipticSphericalCoordinates(Instant instant, Vector3b 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

      Vector3b getEclipticCartesianCoordinates(Instant instant, Vector3b 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

      Vector3b getEquatorialCartesianCoordinates(Instant instant, Vector3b 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.
