Remarks
This numbering convention is used by ephemeris routines; do not confuse with the Body enum, which is used in most other places within NOVAS3.

The numbering convention for 'target' and 'centre' is: 

             0  =  Mercury           7 = Neptune
             1  =  Venus             8 = Pluto
             2  =  Earth             9 = Moon
             3  =  Mars             10 = Sun
             4  =  Jupiter          11 = Solar system barycentre.
             5  =  Saturn           12 = Earth-Moon barycentre.
             6  =  Uranus           13 = Nutations (long. and oblique.)

If nutations are desired, set 'target' = 14; 'centre' will be ignored on that call.
