    Determining orbits from R.A., Dec, & time

    You rock! Off to the library in the morning. I'll note the mistake too and I'll post my results here when I get them. I'll need somebody to check my work. Thanks!

    Determining orbits from R.A., Dec, & time

    Hi, Thanks for the quick replies. enigma: I am experienced in Mathematica and have the math background. What I am looking for is preferably a source book to go from i.e., a celestial mechanics text, but none have any that deal with multiple observations and r.a. and dec coordinates. When...

    Determining orbits from R.A., Dec, & time

    Hi all, First post so here goes: Anybody know of a reference(s) for determining the orbital equations of a celestial object from it's right acsension, declination, and time? I would like to write out some equations for a few asteroids I imaged with my telescope. Thanks.
