Blastro
A Node module for generating planetary ephemeris data for a given date and location. This module repurposes code originally published by Ole Nielsen in 2002 and Peter Hayes in 1999.
Summary
Blastro will generate ephemeris data for planetary bodies for any given date and location. This data can be used for astronomical and astrological pursuits.
