Sun and Moon

Let's Chat

My linux WD version of the sun and moon does not work for the UK I have spent many hours surfing looking for scripts so that I can add some astronomy stuff to me web pages but have been unsuccesful. :frowning:

So my question is are there any scripts out there somewhere that any of the forum members can point me in the right direction to be able to use on my web pages.

Many Thanks
Steve

I’ve got a PHP script to do the Sun, but I’ve never found one that does the Moon.

I will need to dig it up though.

There’s a script down in the postings on this php manual site page that I’ve played with here that has all the basic info needed to create a moon display.

Here is a Moon Java applet I use…

In this same line… Does anyone know where to find algorithms to plot moon position in the sky? Something like this for the sun:

This page appears to have the info you need, but not in a neat package.
