Interesting discussion[edit]

Obsolete CGI vs API[edit]

https://ssd-api.jpl.nasa.gov/obsolete/horizons_batch_cgi.html for converting CGI to API.

  • CGI: https://ssd.jpl.nasa.gov/horizons_batch.cgi?batch=1
  • API: https://ssd.jpl.nasa.gov/api/horizons.api?format=text -- Kheider (talk) 17:57, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Numbered comets: api/horizons.api?format=text&COMMAND=%27DES%3D153P%3BCAP for "Closest APparition" record to the current date
