@PearsonArtPhoto That was exactly the problem! I am a bit surprised that the default value is not the real ICRF frame... In any case, thanks a lot! I now feel much more confident that I'm using JPL DE correctly

Very nice Solar system project by the way! It's surprising to see everything at proper scales to compare distances. I didn't realize before how much closer Jupiter is to Earth than to Uranus and Neptune!

Having a look at it I also seemed to notice that trans-Neptunian objects seem to be roughly clustered into 2 large clusters (not nearly as well defined as the 2 clusters of Jupiter's trojans, but there seems to be some clustering). Is this a real thing?

@Rafa Probably discovery bias.

The thing I found interesting is the asteroids near Jupiter's L3 point.

I also like the line of objects near Pluto.

I suspect it's related to scans looking for these objects that are limited to a part of the time.

I see! makes sense about the discovery bias. I see the asteroids near Jupiter's L3 point!

I also saw a funny line of objects pointing towards Sedna, and starting more or less at the orbit of Neptune

Yeah, no doubt observing one object of interest leads to finding other objects.

Pushing some new updates now. They often take a while to make it through the system.

I think I'm ready now to really start phase 2, which is filtering.

Great! I've bookmarked it, will certainly keep an eye on it :) are you using plotly by the way to make the display?

Yes.

It's the library that I know how to use for this kind of thing.

@Feeds Ben Popper tried to create a provocative title, he made an idiot title

Yet another completely idiot story: stackoverflow.blog/2022/01/10/…

For "Eira May" might be a problem to understand, if you have no work, you have no money. In her mind, work just happens and money just happens.

I think, something should be initiated, at least some type of feedback should be initiated against that, what is going on the SO blog. Imho, this "so blog" is a huge own goal for the company, I think if they are so strongly un-educated, they should try to cover it and not advertising it.
