Description[change source]
The templates {{AstDys}} and {{NeoDys}} create a set of external links for a minor planet to the ESA sponsored AstDys and NeoDys websites of the University of Pisa, respectively.
Usage[change source]
To be used in the "Other websites" section of any appropriate minor-planet object article. The template only requires the minor planet's number or its provisional designation as the only, unnamed parameter. Use the template as a list item with an asterisk (*).
- for near-Earth asteroids use {{NeoDys}} which links to the NEODyS-2 site
- for any other type of minor planet (main-belt asteroids, distant objects and Mars-crossers) use {{AstDys}} which links to the AstDyS-2 site
== Other websites ==
* {{AstDys|number-or-provisional}}
== Other websites ==
* {{NeoDys|number-or-provisional}}
Example[change source]
The first link always displays the title of the article (i.e. page name) where the template is placed in.
Numbered[change source]
* {{AstDys|666}} for the numbered main-belt asteroid 666 Desdemona, produces:
- AstDys/doc at AstDyS-2, Asteroids—Dynamic Site
Unnumbered[change source]
* {{NeoDys|2001AV43}} for the unnumbered near-Earth object 2001 AV43, produces:
- AstDys/doc at NeoDyS-2, Near Earth Objects—Dynamic Site
Note: enter provisional designations without space between year and alphanumeric code
