The Orbital and Celestial Mechanics Website
Freeware
Welcome
This web site
describes a collection of Windows XP/Vista/7 computer programs that can be used
to solve a variety of practical problems in astrodynamics
and celestial mechanics. Several of
these applications were written using Compaq Visual Fortran, version 6.6, Intel
Visual Fortran, version 11.1, and the DISLIN library (www.dislin.de) for the graphical user
interface (GUI) and analysis graphics.
All executable programs are offered as freeware and can be
re-distributed for non-commercial purposes.
