rotationHorEcl

fun rotationHorEcl(time: Time, observer: Observer): RotationMatrix

Calculates a rotation matrix from horizontal (HOR) to J2000 mean ecliptic (ECL).

This is one of the family of functions that returns a rotation matrix for converting from one orientation to another. Source: HOR = horizontal system. Target: ECL = ecliptic system, using equator at J2000 epoch.

Return

A rotation matrix that converts HOR to ECL.

Parameters

time The date and time of the horizontal observation.
observer The location of the horizontal observer.
