NASA JPL Horizons — solar-system body ephemerides

Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 250+ live data sources.

Tools

| Tool | Description | |------|-------------| | lookup | Resolve an object name → SPK id. | | ephemeris | Generate an ephemeris (default observer table). | | observers | Convenience: ephemeris with table_type=OBSERVER. | | vectors | Convenience: ephemeris with table_type=VECTORS. |

Quick Start

Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "horizons-nasa": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/horizons-nasa/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 250+ data sources:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pipeworx": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Using with ask_pipeworx

Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:

ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Horizons Nasa data" })

The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
