Wow, they seem to have 'pruned' the site and the links to the One Day http://aa.usno.navy.mil/data/docs/RS_OneDay.php is 404-Not found
as are all references to an 'API'.

Hopefully, it's a temporary issue .. I'll send a note and ask about the future of those functions. Would be a shame to lose the only worldwide and accurate API for the moon ephemeris from the net...

I did post a comment to the webmaster on the usno.navy.mil site asking about the missing scripts/API functions.

Haven't heard from them yet...

Perhaps D.T. has determined the Sun and Moon is important to those of a certain following and issued an executive descision ?

:lol: However, we feel more like :bash: based on the pronouncements. Mostly, many of us are just :oops: :o :shock: :?

The good news is that the USNO site is back operational. Guess they restored the missing PHP scripts to the site for the queries. :groan:

This time, their DNS is fine, it's just the server that's having a problem.
