    Models Rotational
AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the search for IAU rotational models for planets in the Sol solar system, specifically for use in an orbital flight simulator project. The original poster struggled to find relevant information until discovering the IAU WGCCRE papers on the USGS website, which contain comprehensive rotational element tables for all planets and satellites. A request for links to these resources was made, and a helpful link was provided. The conversation highlights the importance of accessible scientific resources for developers in space simulation projects. The shared link offers valuable information for anyone interested in planetary rotational models.

TL;DR Summary
Looking for some information about IAU rotational model information.
I am developing my own project called orbital flight simulator myself. I was looking for some IAU rotational model about all planets (Sol solar system) through the Internet and my books but was unable find any information. Does anyone have good books or information (tables and algorithms like pole and meridian) about IAU rotational models for all planets?
 
Astronomy news on Phys.org
Well, no one response my question. I now found IAU WGCCRE papers on USGS website that provides complete rotational element tables for all planets and satellites.

Would you happen to have the link?
 
Thanks, I'll check them out when I have some time.
 
TL;DR Summary: In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation. In case of failure to detect alien signals, it will further expand the radius of the so-called silence (or rather, radio silence) of the Universe. Is there any sense in this or is blissful ignorance better? In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation.

Thread 'Could gamma-ray bursts have an intragalactic origin?'
This is indirectly evidenced by a map of the distribution of gamma-ray bursts in the night sky, made in the form of an elongated globe. And also the weakening of gamma radiation by the disk and the center of the Milky Way, which leads to anisotropy in the possibilities of observing gamma-ray bursts. My line of reasoning is as follows: 1. Gamma radiation should be absorbed to some extent by dust and other components of the interstellar medium. As a result, with an extragalactic origin, fewer...
This thread is dedicated to the beauty and awesomeness of our Universe. If you feel like it, please share video clips and photos (or nice animations) of space and objects in space in this thread. Your posts, clips and photos may by all means include scientific information; that does not make it less beautiful to me (n.b. the posts must of course comply with the PF guidelines, i.e. regarding science, only mainstream science is allowed, fringe/pseudoscience is not allowed). n.b.
