Series IX. Computer Printouts, 1965/1973

Scope and content:

This series includes early SH printouts, calculations, and Fortran computer runs such as Betulia ephemeris, Icarus ephemerides, Geographos, planetary coordinates, and two-body problems.

Much of the computer printouts were created by Gary R. Smith, who received his Ph.D. in astrodynamics at UCLA in 1972 from Herrick.

Arrangement:

This series largely maintains the order in which it was received. Oversized materials have been separated into additional boxes.
