Package org.orekit.bodies

Class JPLLibration

java.lang.Object

org.orekit.bodies.JPLLibration

public class JPLLibration
extends Object

A simple container for JPL libration data.

As described in Internal Format of the Ephemeris Files of JPL, there are three components for librations : phi, theta, psi, which can be returned by getLibration(org.orekit.time.AbsoluteDate), or individually by getPhi(org.orekit.time.AbsoluteDate), getTheta(org.orekit.time.AbsoluteDate), and getPsi(org.orekit.time.AbsoluteDate).

Since:

14.0
