ASTRODYNAMIC CONSTANTS ANALYSIS.

Abstract

A summary is presented of current values of astrodynamic constants, including heliocentric, geocentric, selenocentric and planetocentric constants. Interrelationships between constants are given. An internally consistent but tenta tive set of recommended values is given. A discussion is made of the relative accuracies of determinations of the geocentric gravitational constant from radar and angular observations of the Moon and from other sources. (Author)
