Would someone post the latest orbital parameters for Halley's Comet? I need the following: Semi-major Axis (a.u): Mean Motion (rad/day): Eccentricity (rad): Inclination (rad): Right Ascension of Ascending Node (rad): Argument of Perihelion (rad): Mean Anomaly at Epoch (rad): and of course the Epoch for the orbitals. /s/ Richard McGee ARPA: UUCP: {seismo,decvax}!brl!dickmc Brought to you by Super Global Mega Corp .com
