Rino,
Yes, I have looked at this but got to wondering what happens on January 1,
2006? Buy another package?

| Loath as SOME users of this list are to introducing computers into
celestial
| navigation, I would like to find someone that has used the "JPL Planetary
| and Lunar Ephemerides" data to actually produce a computer almanac. I
would
| like to do so but am not sure how to proceed. I am NOT interested in
getting
| the data via the many excellent Web based systems as accessing the web is
| NOT practical while at sea.
|
| Any enlightenment will be appreciated.
|
| TIA
