Parameters

Jd  Double

TDB Julian date split into two parts, where the sum jd[0] + jd[1] is the TDB Julian date.

CelObj  Object3

Structure containing the designation of the body of interest

Origin  Origin

Origin code; solar system barycenter = 0, center of mass of the Sun = 1.

Accuracy  Accuracy

Selection for accuracy

Pos  Double

Position vector of the body at 'JD'; equatorial rectangular coordinates in AU referred to the ICRS.

Vel  Double

Velocity vector of the body at 'JD'; equatorial rectangular system referred to the mean equator and equinox of the ICRS, in AU/Day.

Return Value

               0 ... Everything OK
               1 ... Invalid value of 'Origin'
               2 ... Invalid value of 'Type' in 'CelObj'; 
               3 ... Unable to allocate memory
            10+n ... where n is the error code from 'SolarSystem'; 
            20+n ... where n is the error code from 'ReadEph'.
