Orbits

This page lists contents and services available around orbits and related data. If the service is new or still in development, we will use (Alpha) to indicate that the service is in the early stages of development and could easily change, (Beta) to indicate that the service is in the later stages of development and is likely to become fully functional soon.

Services

  • Request for archival astrometry and identifications

    This page contains a list of observations and designations of objects that do not have any orbit associated with or that have very uncertain and short arc orbits. The MPC is requesting either extension of short arcs that will allow us to compute or improve the orbit or find the identification with existing orbits or ITF tracklets.

  • Orbit Comparison Tool for NEOs

    The orbit comparison tool allows you to compare orbital parameters between the MPC's MPCORB.DAT files and JPL's SBDB. Future development will include orbits from different centers.
