INFORMATION ON UPDATED EPHEMERIDES OF MINOR PLANETS SERVICE Due to rapid growth of number of the numbered minor planets the EMP data turn out to be substantially incomplete or out of date by the time they are used. ... The package computes positions of minor planets by the formulae of elliptic motion using sets of osculating elements obtained in advance for a number of non-uniformly distributed moments of time. ... In so doing coordinates and masses of perturbing planets are taken from DE 405. ...

... These are just the bare bones--just three basic ideas and rules for handling relations ("equations") involving unknown quantities whose values you are trying to find. In most calculations you try to find a number . ... To get a solution, one must replace the given equation (or equations) with others, containing the same information but cleaner in appearance. ... If you have an equation and modify both its sides in exactly the same way, what you get is also a valid equation. ...

... It may be added, subtracted, divided or multiplied in any way appropriate for ordinary numbers. A mathematical relationship involving known numbers (like 25 or 40) and unknown ones (like x ) is known as an equation . ... To get a solution, one must replace the given equation (or equations) with others, containing the same information but cleaner in appearance. ...
