Description
Returns the location of a specific Planetary body, in the FK5 J2000 Coordinate System
The FK5 is an equatorial coordinate system (coordinate system linked to the Earth) based on its J2000 position. As any equatorial frame, the FK5-based follows the long-term Earth motion (precession).
The returned location is expressed in Astronomical Units (AU) The relativistic effects are ignored (See GetBodyLocation_FK5J2000_AU_Relativistic )
