+<DT>1.
+<DD>The ``universal'' elements are those which define the orbit for
+the purposes of the method of universal variables (see reference).
+They consist of the combined mass of the two bodies, an epoch,
+ and the position and velocity vectors (arbitrary reference frame)
+ at that epoch. The parameter set used here includes also various
+ quantities that can, in fact, be derived from the other
+ information. This approach is taken to avoiding unnecessary
+ computation and loss of accuracy. The supplementary quantities
+ are (i)&nbsp;<IMG WIDTH="13" HEIGHT="14" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
+ SRC="img24.gif"
+ ALT="$\alpha$">, which is proportional to the total energy of the
+ orbit, (ii)&nbsp;the heliocentric distance at epoch,
+ (iii)&nbsp;the outwards component of the velocity at the given epoch,
+ (iv)&nbsp;an estimate of <IMG WIDTH="14" HEIGHT="27" ALIGN="MIDDLE" BORDER="0"
+ SRC="img105.gif"
+ ALT="$\psi$">, the ``universal eccentric anomaly'' at a
+ given date and (v)&nbsp;that date.
+ <DT>2.
+<DD>The companion routine is sla_UE2PV. This takes the set of numbers
+ that the present routine outputs and uses them to derive the
+ object's position and velocity. A single prediction requires one
+ call to the present routine followed by one call to sla_UE2PV;
+ for convenience, the two calls are packaged as the routine
+ sla_PLANEL. Multiple predictions may be made by again calling the
+ present routine once, but then calling sla_UE2PV multiple times,
+ which is faster than multiple calls to sla_PLANEL.
+ <DT>3.
+<DD>DATE is the epoch of osculation. It is in the TT timescale
+ (formerly Ephemeris Time, ET) and is a Modified Julian Date
+ (JD-2400000.5).
+ <DT>4.
+<DD>The supplied orbital elements are with respect to the J2000
+ ecliptic and equinox. The position and velocity parameters
+ returned in the array U are with respect to the mean equator and
+ equinox of epoch J2000, and are for the perihelion prior to the
+ specified epoch.
+ <DT>5.
+<DD>The universal elements returned in the array U are in canonical
+ units (solar masses, AU and canonical days).
+ <DT>6.
+<DD>Three different element-format options are supported, as
+ follows. <BR>
