To compute the position of celestial body or star with SE (Swiss Ephemeris), you do the following steps:
swephR
:library(swephR)
swe_set_ephe_path("C:\\sweph\\ephe")
2000
year <- 1
month <- 1
day <- 12
hour <- swe_julday(year, month, day, hour, SE$GREG_CAL)
jdut <-
jdut#> [1] 2451545

ipl <- SE$FLG_MOSEPH + SE$FLG_SPEED
iflag <- swe_calc_ut(jdut, ipl, iflag)
result <-
