Five different approaches are used in the test_MoonPosition.m for the computation of lunar coordinates; NASA JPL Development Ephemerides (DE440), very accurate ELP2000-82, high-precision analytical series (Brown's theory), low-precision analytical series, and Simpson analytical method.

2.2.0

test_MoonPosition.m was modified.

2.1.1

JPL Developement Ephemerides DE436 was replaced by DE440, and Mjday.m was modified.

2.1.0.0

The DE436 full matrix is added.

2.0.0.0

JPL Development Ephemerides (DE430) is replaced by DE436.

1.1.0.0

Ephemeris Time (ET) is introduced as the best approximation of Barycentric Dynamical Time (TDB) and Terrestrial Time (TT) for prediction purposes. Moreover, very accurate ELP2000-82 lunar coordinates is computed.
