PlanetPosJPL:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Get positions for an array of planets using the JPL ephemeris.
Gives the position vectors, gravitational parameters and velocity
for the planets. The frame is heliocentric and can be either in the Earth's
equatorial plane (default) or the ecliptic plane.
Modeled after PlanetPosition.
0. Sun (at origin)
1. Mercury
2. Venus
3. Earth
4. Mars
5. Jupiter
6. Saturn
7. Uranus
8. Neptune
9. Pluto
10. Geocentric Moon
11. Earth-Moon Barycenter
This calls the function InterpolateState which returns planet states in the
Earth equatorial frame and measured from the solar system barycenter.
You must first initialize this function with a set of planet IDs and then
you can retrieve the states for a specific Julian date.
