- Take a look at the FAQ for sci.space. It is stored on ames.arc.nasa.gov
- in the directory pub/SPACE (?). It consists of 15 parts and last I
- remember it had some pointers to doing multi-body orbit simulations.
- FWIW, make sure in your calculations that the time interval between
- successive calculations is fine enough otherwise you *will* get
- round-off errors
