As noted in #7, there are problems with the demo.

What is it supposed to do?

How do this project's goals compare to mommermi/callhorizons: a python interface to JPL HORIZONS ephemerides and orbital elements

Thanks!

Hi Neal: Not sure if anyone has contacted you yet. This project was done as part of of a Space Apps hackathon in 2013. I think the callhorizons project you mentioned is more feature complete for sure. The goal was to expose Horizons through a Web API returning JSON as opposed to Python functions though.
