This template, {{JPL+CAD}}, creates two external links to the JPL Small-Body Database ( SBDB) for a specific near-Earth object. The first link leads to the general object page (labelled "JPL"), while the second link directly shows the close approach data section (labelled "CAD").
The template only requires the body's unique identifier, such as a minor planet's number. For example:
{{JPL+CAD|99942}}
produces
JPL ·
CAD, for near-Earth asteroid
99942 ApophisInstead of an asteroid's number, several other identifiers are also possible:
{{JPL+CAD|2099942}}
produces
JPL ·
CAD, for
99942 Apophis using the object's SPK-ID instead{{JPL+CAD|2012+UE34}}
produces
JPL ·
CAD, for provisionally designated asteroid
2012 UE34 (use the "+"-sign){{JPL+CAD|104P}}
produces
JPL ·
CAD, for numbered comet
104P/Kowal (use number and letter P only){{JPL+CAD|P/1999+J6}}
produces
JPL ·
CAD, for unnumbered comet
P/1999 J6 (note the "+"-sign)For more information, and to create a single link to the "Close approach data" section, see template {{ JPL}}
