	*@short A subclass of KSPlanetBase that implements asteroids.
	*
	*The orbital elements are stored as private member variables, and it
	*provides methods to compute the ecliptic coordinates for any time
	*from the orbital elements.
	*
	*The orbital elements are:
	*@li JD    Epoch of element values
	*@li a     semi-major axis length (AU)
	*@li e     eccentricity of orbit
	*@li i     inclination angle (with respect to J2000.0 ecliptic plane)
	*@li w     argument of perihelion (w.r.t. J2000.0 ecliptic plane)
	*@li N     longitude of ascending node (J2000.0 ecliptic)
	*@li M     mean anomaly at epoch JD
	*@li H     absolute magnitude
	*

	*@version 1.0
