How I set These Up
#18
There are two things I wanted to ask

1. Most of the lists in the "Update Minor Planets Data" dialog do not appear as subscriptions - only "current bright and interesting minor planets" are subscribable.

It requires 7 clicks (shown below) to update a list and while it's a small thing, the programmer in me wishes there were an automatic refresh. I understand why some of the larger lists (eg ASTORB or the full MPCORB) should stay as an explicit load, to avoid hitting the distribution servers unnecessarily, but perhaps some of the smaller ones could be made available as subscriptions?

  • click on Data
  • click on Minor Planets
  • click on Download/Import Data
  • click on the desired list
  • click on Download
  • click on Close (after the d/l finished)
  • click on Accept


2. There are two lists for NEAs. Is there any reasons not to always use the second one (perhaps only when looking at dates distant from today)?

  • MPC NEA: Orbits for Near Earth Asteroids (NEAs). Updated a few times per day.
  • MPC NEA Today: Orbits for Near Earth Asteroids (NEAs) at today's epoch for more accurate positions. Updated a few times per day.

Thanks,
Razvan
