Functions/Subroutines
subroutine	thesky_moon::elp82b_lbr (tjj, ll, bb, rr)
	Calculate the apparent geocentric ecliptical position of the Moon, using the Lunar Solution ELP 2000-82B.
subroutine	thesky_moon::elp_mpp02_lbr (jd, mode, lon, lat, rad, precess)
	Compute the spherical lunar coordinates using the ELP2000/MPP02 lunar theory in the dynamical mean ecliptic and equinox of J2000.
subroutine	thesky_moon::elp_mpp02_xyz (jd, mode, xyz, vxyz, ierr)
	Compute the rectangular lunar coordinates using the ELP/MPP02 lunar theory in the dynamical mean ecliptic and equinox of J2000.
subroutine	thesky_moon::moonpos_la (jd, calc, nt)
	Quick, lower-accuracy lunar coordinates; ~600x faster than ELP.
real(double) function	thesky_moon::moonmagn (pa, delta)
	Calculate the magnitude of the Moon.
