Measure every moon and dwarf planet against Horizons from 1950 to 2100, and say on its card how far it strays
The clock reaches AD 1 to AD 3000, but only the planets' cards named a span their elements hold
over; the 25 moons and the four SBDB dwarf planets gave a source and an epoch, though
BodyRecord.orbitSource is documented as "the span they hold over". And the worst offsets the ETL
stated came from twelve New Year's Days: Nereid's year is 360 days, so all twelve fell far from
its periapsis, where a mean ellipse is furthest out. The one date the ETL checked, 2025-01-01, saw
Nereid at 2.6 degrees; it reaches 11.19.
For each moon and each SBDB dwarf planet the ETL now fetches Horizons' ICRF vectors from 1950 to
2100, every other day (daily for Nereid, at an eccentricity of 0.75, and Hyperion, whose row's
eccentricity is a quarter of its real one: every other day gave it 22.14, daily 22.23), and
measures how far the mean elements stray, at the same TDB dates. The card appends it: "JPL SBDB
osculating elements, epoch 2026 Jun 9, within 7.2 degrees of Horizons from 1950 to 2100". Worst
offsets on the real catalogue: the Moon 2.62 (2010 March 27), Phoebe 2.58 (1969, where a comment
claimed "within 2.0"), Phobos 1.26, Mimas 7.43, Iapetus 10.34, Nereid 11.19 (2039 Nov 1),
Hyperion 22.23 (2055 Feb 26), Ceres 7.12 (1953); Io 0.07, Titan 0.06, Eris 0.06.
build.ts recomputes each from the same Horizons positions and fails if an orbit other than
Standish's names no span, if a card states less than it strays, or if a body passes its ceiling:
3 degrees, and Hyperion 23, Nereid 12, Iapetus 11, Mimas 8 and Ceres 8, each explained. The
2025-01-01 check stays for reading errors, its comment no longer passing one date's offsets off as
worst ones. The Sun's note says the moons' and those four's elements were checked from 1950 to
2100, and the date field's description that each card says how far its orbit strays over that span.
In the running app Ceres's, Phobos's and Nereid's cards end "within 7.2", "1.3" and "11.2 degrees
of Horizons from 1950 to 2100".
The CLOCK_WINDOW comment also had the calendars the wrong way at AD 1: proleptic Gregorian dates
are two days behind the Julian calendar there, level from AD 200 to 300, and ten days ahead by
1582. It now says so, and names Ceres's drift where it named Phobos's, which its orbit now carries.
Controls: the ETL measuring nothing fails ("Ceres's orbit ... names no span it holds over"),
rounding the stated figure down fails on Ceres (7.1 against 7.12), and Nereid held to the general
ceiling fails at 11.19; the note and the date field without the span fail their named tests.

Turn the Sun about its IAU pole, once in 25.38 days, as every planet already is
Every body with IAU elements was turned by its pole and W, but the Sun, which is the system's star marker and no BodyRecord, was built with an identity rotation and never touched: its pole pointed at RA 90, Dec 0, 115.03 degrees from the WGCCRE 2015 solar pole (RA 286.13, Dec 63.87), and it stood still where its W turns 14.1844 degrees a day. SUN_ROTATIONAL_ELEMENTS carries NAIF body 10 from pck00011.tpc, and the ETL fails if they are not the kernel's. The scene turns the star marker by bodyOrientation each tick when the star is the Sun, as the renderer turns the planets. In the running app the Sun's drawn pole lies on the IAU's (0.00 degrees) and its map turns 14.1844 degrees between 2026-01-01 and 01-02. The map's longitudes are Solar System Scope's, not Carrington's, so the phase of W is not the Sun's own; the pole and the rate are. Controls: leaving the marker unturned fails "turns the Sun about its IAU pole, once in 25.38 days"; the app's elements off the kernel's (W rate 14.18) fails the ETL.

Print Hyperion's eccentricity as JPL measures it now, 0.105, not the archived row's 0.023
The card listed Hyperion's eccentricity under "Measured" as 0.023: the archived JPL satellite row
the orbit is drawn from gives 0.0232. JPL's current table (SAT441) gives 0.105, and Horizons'
osculating orbit ranges 0.074 to 0.132 from 1980 to 2100 (0.1099 on 2025-01-01). The row stays
the orbit: with 0.105 put into it, Hyperion is further from Horizons, not nearer (median 9.6
degrees against 7.8 over 1980-2100, as a reviewer measured), so only the card changes.
BodyRecord.measuredEccentricity carries the figure the card prints where it is not the orbit's
own; the ETL sets it for Hyperion, and buildBodyViewModel prints it. build.ts now checks every
card's eccentricity against Horizons' osculating one on 2025-01-01, within 0.03: measured at most
0.0151 (Phoebe, and the Moon, whose eccentricity swings) once Hyperion prints 0.105, where the
row put it 0.0867 out. The live Hyperion page reads "ECCENTRICITY 0.105".
Controls: the ETL with Hyperion on its row's figure fails ("Hyperion's card gives an eccentricity of
0.0232, where Horizons' osculating orbit has 0.1099"); the view model ignoring the field fails
"prints the eccentricity measured for a moon whose orbit keeps an older one".

Turn Eris once in 15.77 days, locked to Dysnomia, not in the 25.9 hours the SBDB flags as unreliable
Eris took its day from the SBDB's rot_per, 25.9 hours, whose own note reads "Result based on less than full coverage, so that the period may be wrong by 30 percent or so" (Roe et al. 2008). Eris is locked to Dysnomia: its light curve repeats every 15.771 +/- 0.008 days (Bernstein et al. 2023, PSJ 4, 115), Dysnomia's 15.78590-day orbit (Holler et al. 2021; Szakáts et al. 2023, A&A 669, L3). It was drawn turning 14.6 times too fast. Eris's BodySpec now carries that day, 378.504 hours, cited as its radius already cites Sicardy et al., and a spec's measured day comes before its source's. build.ts checks that Eris's day is Dysnomia's orbit within 0.2 per cent. In the running app Eris turns 5.707 degrees in six hours, as 15.771 days gives; on 25.9 hours it turned 83.4. Makemake's SBDB period, 22.83 hours, carries the same flag; it is Hromakina et al. 2019's own result and nothing later overturns it, so it is kept. Control: Eris on the SBDB's period fails the ETL: "Eris turns once in 1.079 days". Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Move Mimas, Tethys and Phobos along their orbits by the terms their IAU W already carried
The IAU W of a locked moon follows its mean longitude, so a term of W that is the moon running
ahead of and behind its mean motion is its orbit's too. Two were in bodies.json's W and in no
orbit: the 71-year libration of the Mimas-Tethys 4:2 resonance, -44.85 degrees on Mimas and
+2.23 on Tethys on the angle S5 = 316.45 + 506.2 T of pck00011.tpc, and Phobos's tidal
quadratic, 9.536e-9 degrees a day squared about J2000. JPL's satellite table has a column for
neither. orbitalTermsOfPrimeMeridian now turns each into the row's meanAnomalyTerms about the
row's own epoch (Phobos's 1950 row gets the quadratic re-centred, which adds to its mean motion
and mean anomaly at the epoch), and the ETL takes them for the three moons named in their specs.
Against Horizons: Mimas on 2026 May 27, near the libration's extreme, 2.24 degrees instead of
43.3; Tethys the same day 0.18 instead of 2.05; Phobos in 2100 1.25 instead of 11.1. On the
ETL's 2025-01-01 check Mimas is 1.56 degrees, so its named 46-degree ceiling is gone. The renderer
spec freezes the Mimas and Phobos vectors.
The day-equals-orbit check checked a number that turns no locked moon: since

Carry every body's IAU rotational elements, read from NAIF's kernel of the 2015 report
bodies.json now holds, for 33 of the 38 bodies, the pole right ascension and declination and the prime meridian W of the IAU WGCCRE 2015 report (Archinal et al. 2018), with their rates and the periodic terms. They are read from NAIF's pck00011.tpc, which carries the report in a form a program can read, periodic terms and their angles included. Hyperion (chaotic), Nereid, Eris, Haumea and Makemake have no model in the report. The parser, src/app/shared/astro/rotational-elements.ts, sits beside the other source readers so the unit suite covers it. It reads data blocks only where \begindata stands alone on a line, as the kernel's own prose mentions the token mid-sentence. It reads the Fortran exponent (the Moon's -1.4D-12 d² term) and the degree-2 angles of the Mars system, where Phobos's tidal acceleration lives. NAIF numbers a small body 2 000 000 past its catalogue number, so Ceres is 2000001. Periodic terms under 0.01 degrees are left out. 0.01 degrees moves a point by 0.11 px on the largest body ever drawn (Jupiter at 641 px of radius). That drops 32 terms: - Mercury: 4 (0.0011 degrees and less) - the Moon: 8 of 13 (0.0072 and less) - Mars: 13 (0.00024 and less); its three 0.42-1.59 degree long-period terms stay - Phobos: 1 (0.0063) - Jupiter: 5 (0.0022 and less) - Europa: 1 (0.009) Kept, among others: Mimas's 44.85-degree libration, Triton's 32-degree precession, Miranda's 4.4 and Phobos's 1.14-degree libration. build.ts now checks the elements against Horizons on the real catalogue: - Every body but those five carries elements, and they do not. - The IAU day, 360 over W's rate, is within 1e-4 of Horizons' period. Measured: at most 1.8e-5 (Jupiter). Neptune gets a 0.01 ceiling: 0.89 per cent, because the report takes Karkoschka's 15.9663 h where Horizons keeps Voyager's 16.11. - The spin axis, the pole turned end for end where W runs backwards, is within 0.1 degrees of Horizons' obliquity. Measured: at most 0.058 (Venus, 177.358 against 177.3); Uranus 97.771, Pluto 119.610, Earth 23.435. Full npm run etl passes. Three mutants each fail it on the named check: - W's sign dropped: "Venus's IAU spin axis is 2.642 degrees". - Ceres looked up by catalogue number: "Body ceres has no IAU rotational elements". - W's rate read per century: "Mercury's IAU day ... 3.65e+4". Nothing is drawn from these yet. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Add Charon, the moons of Uranus, Saturn's other large moons and the four dwarf planets past Pluto's table
The solar system stopped at 18 bodies: Pluto without Charon, Uranus without a moon, Saturn with Titan alone, no dwarf planet but Pluto (audit #22). bodies.json now holds 38: the eight planets, the five IAU dwarf planets, and every moon in JPL's mean-element table more than 100 km in mean radius. New: Ceres, Eris, Haumea, Makemake; Mimas, Enceladus, Tethys, Dione, Rhea, Hyperion, Iapetus, Phoebe; Miranda, Ariel, Umbriel, Titania, Oberon; Nereid, Proteus; Charon. Search finds each by name (it indexes bodies.json), each has a body page, and the Sun's system draws them. Where they come from - Moons: the same archived JPL satellite table as the others. Uranus's and Pluto's are given against the planet's equator, with the IAU WGCCRE 2015 poles: Pluto's as the IAU gives it (132.993, -6.163), Uranus's at the end the table measures inclinations from (77.311, 15.175) with its nodes counted 180 degrees on, from the IAU pole's crossing; read without that offset every Uranian moon was 180 degrees from Horizons at every date from 1980 to 2100. - Two rows are corrected where they disagree with JPL's own ephemeris and the reason is known. Pluto's section prints epoch 2000 Jan 1.0; JPL's current table gives Charon's as 2000-01-01.5, and at 1.0 Charon was 27.8-28.2 degrees from Horizons at every date, half a day of its motion. Phoebe's mean motion gives 548.02 days where its Horizons page and the current table give 550.30 (the table's own note says its source misstated retrograde moons' mean motions); on the row's figure Phoebe was 24.6 degrees out by 2025 and 100 by 2075. - Dwarf planets: JPL SBDB osculating heliocentric elements with their epoch (2026 Jun 9), carried at their own n. Against Horizons (heliocentric, 1950-2300; the clock only runs forward from now): Ceres 0.02 degrees in 2025, 1.9 in 2050, 4.0 in 2075, 5.3 in 2100, 11.6 in 2200 (Jupiter pulls on it and nothing here carries that); Eris within 0.06 to 2100 and 0.5 to 2300; Haumea within 0.35 to 2100; Makemake within 0.25 to 2100 and 1.7 by 2200. - Size and spin: Horizons pages for the moons (Charon 606 km, Miranda 235.7 as the mean of its three axes). The SBDB for Ceres (469.7 km, 9.074 h) and for the other three's spins (Eris 25.9 h, Haumea 3.915 h, Makemake 22.83 h). Neither source nor the WGCCRE 2015 report has a radius for Eris, Haumea or Makemake, so each carries its stellar-occultation measurement: Eris 1163 km (Sicardy et al. 2011), Makemake 715 (Brown 2013, the mean of 1434 x 1434 x 1422 km), and Haumea 797.6, the radius of a sphere of its volume: it is triaxial, 1161 x 852 x 513 km (Ortiz et al. 2017), and is drawn as that sphere. - Rotation uses the branch's model. Every moon is locked except three: Hyperion's page says "Chaotic" and Nereid's gives no spin, so both are left still; Phoebe turns in 9.274 h. - Charon carries massRatio 0.12205, the GM ratio of the two Horizons pages (106.10 / 869.326), so it and Pluto are drawn round their barycentre 2 131 km from Pluto's centre. Validators (tools/etl/build.ts, on the real catalogue; full npm run etl passes) - Offsets from Horizons on 2025-01-01, new bodies: dwarf planets at most 0.016 degrees (Ceres), under the 0.25 ceiling; moons Dione 0.009, Ariel 0.058, Rhea 0.070, Charon 0.111, Oberon 0.142, Titania 0.185, Umbriel 0.219, Proteus 0.245, Enceladus 0.309, Phoebe 0.984, Miranda 1.162, Tethys 2.042, under the 2.5 ceiling, which is unchanged. - Four moons get their own ceiling, each just above its worst offset at twelve dates from 1980 to 2100 and each named with its reason: Mimas 46 (measured up to 44.7: its resonance with Tethys swings its longitude 44 degrees either way over 70.8 years, which the table has no column for), Hyperion 21 (20.2; held in resonance by Titan, and the row's eccentricity 0.0232 is under a quarter of the current table's 0.105), Iapetus 11 (10.1; the row sits 9.4 degrees behind Horizons at its own epoch and keeps that, with its plane within 0.07 degrees and its period within 0.001 per cent), Nereid 3 (2.6 in 2025; eccentricity 0.75). - New checks: every body has a radius over 0 (Charon's would have been 0 before the page parser learnt its form); a freely spinning moon is not locked; a moon with a mass ratio puts the barycentre outside its planet; there are 5 dwarf planets. - Negative controls, each a full npm run etl on the real catalogue refused with the named message: Uranus's node offset removed (Miranda 172.50 degrees), Charon at the printed epoch (28.08), Phoebe on the row's mean motion (24.61), Charon's radius unread (no radius), free spinners locked (Hyperion), mass ratio inverted (barycentre 17 460 km out). Measured in the running app (port 4311): the Sun's system has 38 members ("13 + 25 moons"); Charon comes back to within 0.0004 degrees of where it started after 6.38723 days and is 179.98 degrees round after half that; Pluto is 2 130.6 km from the barycentre and Charon 17 456.8, exactly opposite; Saturn's moons in order of distance now: Mimas 185 617 km, Enceladus 238 042, Tethys 294 648, Dione 376 805, Rhea 526 964, Titan 1 231 389, Hyperion 1 470 453, Iapetus 3 637 059, Phoebe 11 740 900. At the arrival framing the dwarf planets are held at the 3 px floor and the moons at 1.5 px, half their planet's drawn radius, the scene's existing rule. Searching Charon, Enceladus, Ceres, Titania, Makemake and Phoebe each finds the body; the body pages show Charon 6.39 d and 606 km, Titania 8.71 d, Ceres 4.6 yr and 470 km, Haumea 283 yr and 798 km, Hyperion 21.3 d, each with its orbit source. Long tasks on entering: see the previous commit. The Sun's note now says the four dwarf planets are on the SBDB's osculating elements. Holding Eris's orbit, the arrival framing widens: 192 AU of range on a 1600 x 1000 window, under the 200 AU ceiling. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Move the solar system on JPL's mean elements, so it stays right as the clock runs
Every body carried one set of osculating elements from Horizons at 2025-01-01, run forward by
Kepler with a GM from a table of mass ratios. That set is exact at its instant and drifts from
then on, and the clock now runs a month a second: the Moon, with Earth's mass ratio lacking its
own and the osculating axis, went round in 27.70 days instead of 27.32, 66 degrees out after a
year, and its locked face was spun at the same wrong rate.
Planets and Pluto now take Standish's Table 2a/2b ("Keplerian Elements for Approximate
Positions of the Major Planets"): elements against the J2000 ecliptic, their rates per century,
and the b, c, s, f terms of Jupiter to Pluto, fit for 3000 BC to AD 3000. Table 1 is closer near
the present (Saturn 0.23 degrees at worst 1950-2100, against 0.32 here) but is only fit for
1800-2050, and by AD 3000 has Saturn 4.3 degrees out where Table 2 holds every planet within 0.3.
The moons take JPL SSD's satellite mean elements: sidereal mean motion n to ten figures, the
periods of their node and periapsis, and each one's local Laplace plane by its pole. They
propagate with n itself, never a GM: gmForParent and its mass table are gone. Horizons still
gives size, spin and obliquity.
Both tables are read from the Internet Archive's copy of JPL's pages, pinned to one capture: the
live approx_pos page has dropped Pluto, and the live sats/elem page has dropped n and rounds the
period to four or five figures (Phobos 0.3187 d, a revolution out within a decade).
What the tables leave implicit, measured against Horizons before it was accepted:
- The precession periods are magnitudes. A node regresses on a prograde orbit and advances on a
retrograde one; a periapsis advances except where a resonance forces the eccentricity. Io's
and Europa's follow their conjunction line backwards at 2 n(Europa) - n(Io) = 0.74 degrees a
day, which is exactly the 1.625- and 1.394-year periods in the table. Read as advancing, Io
was 0.9 degrees out and Europa 2.1.
- On a retrograde orbit the node's turning is added back to the mean anomaly. Taken off, Triton
drifted a degree a year, 105 degrees by 2100.
- The Laplace frame's x axis is where the plane rises through the ICRF equator, RA of the pole
plus 90. Read against the ecliptic, Io was 2.8 degrees out, Phobos 54 and Titan 127.
Orbit lines are now drawn in their own plane and turned by a quaternion each tick, so a turning
node carries the line with the body: fixed at one date, the Moon's line would be up to 69 000 km
off it nine years on. The Earth row is the Earth-Moon barycentre, 4 700 km from Earth, 0.002
degrees from the Sun. A tidally locked moon's day is now 360 / n, its sidereal period (the Moon
27.321662 d), so it stays locked to the orbit it is drawn on.
Angular error against Horizons VECTORS (ICRF, TDB; heliocentric for planets, planet-centred for
moons), degrees, read from the live renderer's markers in the running app:

Three miss what was hoped for, and why:
- Jupiter 0.17, Saturn 0.32, Uranus 0.17 against the 0.1 hoped for: short-period perturbations
of the giants by one another, which no Keplerian fit carries. Standish states his own Table 2
errors as 600, 1 000 and 2 000 arcseconds (0.17, 0.28, 0.56 degrees). Out to AD 3000, measured
at 1800, 2200, 2400, 2600 and 3000, every planet stays within 0.3.
- The Moon, 1.9: evection (1.27) and variation (0.66), which a mean ellipse leaves out.
- Phobos, 2.1 until 2050, then 5.9 in 2075 and 11.1 in 2100, growing as the square of the time:
its tidal acceleration, which the table has no column for. Its elements are MAR080's, epoch
1950. The map's dates are also UTC where the elements are TDB, 69 s today,
which is 0.9 degrees of Phobos and nothing for anything else.
Held in place by:
- build.ts: each body's mean elements against Horizons' own osculating elements on the ETL's
2025-01-01, at most 0.25 degrees for a planet and 2.5 for a moon (measured: Uranus 0.101, the
Moon 1.407; a regressing Triton node reads 10.24 and fails), and every moon's day equal to its
sidereal period (a 1% error fails).
- Unit tests freezing nine Horizons vectors (Earth 2100, Jupiter 1950, Saturn 2075, Pluto 1975,
the Moon 2050, Io and Europa 1950, Titan and Triton 2100) through SystemOrbitsRenderer, the
Moon kept on its own turning line, the retrograde rule, the Standish terms, the Laplace frame,
and both table parsers. Nine mutants each fail the test named for them, and the two
validators each refuse a mutated build of the real catalogue.

Turn each body at its own rate, from Horizons' own figures
The view had one rotation in it — the planet on the detail page, at 0.08 rad/s, a number with no source. Nothing in the system view turned at all. The data was already on disk: every cached Horizons page carries how its body spins, in one of five forms. The rate in radians per second is preferred where it appears, because it is signed — that is how Venus and Uranus are known to turn backwards — then a period in hours or days, then the `9h 55m 29.711 s` the giant planets use, and finally the word every major moon here carries instead of a number: Synchronous. A tidally locked moon's day is its orbit, so Kepler supplies it from the elements already parsed and the parent it goes round. Seventeen of the eighteen bodies come out within 1% of their published period — Earth 23.934 h, Jupiter 9.925 h, Venus -5832.5 h, Io 42.5 h, Callisto 400.5 h. Titan is the exception: its page states no period at all, so it is left still rather than turned at an invented rate. The axis is the orbit normal tilted by the obliquity about the orbit's ascending node, which is where an obliquity is measured from and the only line in the orbit the elements name. The phase at the epoch is published for none of these bodies, so the face turned toward the camera is not a claim; the rate and the direction are. At true rates nothing is visible moving — Earth turns 15 degrees an hour. A clock the reader can run faster is the next piece, and the audit asks for it anyway.
