IDL> How to calculate the position of the Sun? [message #4028] Wed, 19 April 1995 00:00

I would like to calculate the position of the Sun at a given date & time
in (geocentric) equatorial coordinates. Anyone got a routine for this?

I have a routine to calculate its RA-Dec but no RA-Dec to lat-long
coordinate conversion. Must be an astronomer out there with a routine to
do this......

Thanks in advance

Fergus
