 This website gives an overview and reference to the most common coordinate +systems currently used in space science. While coordinate systems used in +near-Earth space physics have been described in previous work we extend that +description to systems used for physical observations of the Sun and the +planets and to systems based on space craft location. For all systems we +define the corresponding transformation in terms of Eulerian rotation matrices. +We also give first order Keplerian elements for planetary orbits and determine +their precision for the period 1950-2050 and describe methods to improve +that precision. We also determine the Keplerian orbital elements for most +major interplanetary missions and discuss their precision. We also give reference +to a large set of web-sources relevant to the subject.
