Lunar node and apogee (Lilith) calculations for libephemeris.

This module computes:
- Mean Lunar Node: Average ascending node of Moon's orbit on ecliptic
- True Lunar Node: Instantaneous osculating ascending node
- Mean Lilith: Average lunar apogee (Black Moon Lilith)
- True Lilith: Instantaneous osculating lunar apogee

True Node Calculation Method
============================

The True Lunar Node is the instantaneous (osculating) ascending node of the
Moon's orbit, computed using a rigorous orbital mechanics approach combined
with high-precision perturbation theory.

**Two-Step Calculation Process:**

1. **Geometric Osculating Node** (calc_true_lunar_node):
   - Obtains Moon's geocentric position (r) and velocity (v) from JPL DE ephemeris
   - Computes angular momentum vector h = r x v (perpendicular to orbital plane)
   - Transforms h from ICRS equatorial to J2000 ecliptic coordinates
   - Derives ascending node longitude from: node = atan2(h_x, -h_y)
   - Applies IAU 2006 precession from J2000 to ecliptic of date
   - Applies IAU 2000A nutation (1365 terms) for true ecliptic of date

2. **ELP2000-82B Perturbation Series** (_calc_elp2000_node_perturbations):
   - Implements 120+ perturbation terms from the ELP2000-82B lunar theory
   - Includes extended high-order terms (5D, 6D, 7D) for historical dates
   - Higher-order secular corrections (T³, T⁴, T⁵) for pre-1800 accuracy
   - Corrects for gravitational influences not fully captured in the
     osculating elements approach

**Perturbation Terms Included:**

The ELP2000-82B series covers the following categories:

1. **Main Solar Perturbation Terms** (~1.5° amplitude):
   - Dominant fortnightly variation: -1.5233 sin(2D)
   - Solar-lunar coupling terms: sin(2D±M), sin(2D±M')
   - Total: 9 terms, amplitudes 0.01-1.52°

2. **Second-Order Solar Terms** (0.003-0.04°):
   - Combined Sun-Moon anomaly: sin(2D-M-M'), sin(2D-M+M')
   - Parallactic inequality: sin(D)
   - Higher harmonics: sin(3D), sin(4D)
   - Total: 12 terms

3. **Third-Order and Higher Solar Terms** (0.001-0.006°):
   - Triple frequency combinations: sin(M±M'), sin(2D-2M)
   - Higher Moon anomaly harmonics: sin(2D±3M'), sin(3M')
   - Total: 10 terms

4. **F-Related (Inclination) Terms** (0.001-0.01°):
   - Latitude argument harmonics: sin(2F), sin(4F)
   - Elongation-latitude coupling: sin(2D±2F), sin(2F±D)
   - Solar-latitude coupling: sin(2F±M)
   - Total: 9 terms

5. **Planetary Perturbation Terms**:
   - Venus (0.001-0.005°): 9 terms involving L_Venus
   - Mars (0.001-0.004°): 9 terms involving L_Mars
   - Jupiter (0.001-0.003°): 7 terms involving L_Jupiter
   - Saturn (0.001-0.003°): 7 terms involving L_Saturn
   - Planetary cross-terms: Venus-Jupiter, Mars-Jupiter, Saturn-Jupiter

6. **Long-Period Terms**:
   - Evection (~31.8 day period): 6 terms, up to 0.047°
   - Variation (~14.77 day period): 10 terms, up to 0.052°
   - Annual Equation (~365 day period): 6 terms, up to 0.186°
   - Parallactic Inequality (~29.5 day period): 3 terms, up to 0.035°

7. **Second-Order Coupling Terms** (0.0001-0.003°):
   - Evection x Variation: cos(M'), cos(4D-M')
   - Evection x Annual Equation: cos(2D-M'±M)
   - Variation x Annual Equation: cos(2D±M)
   - Self-coupling: cos(4D-2M'), cos(4D), cos(2F), cos(2M)
   - E² corrections for Earth's orbital eccentricity

8. **Secular Terms** (T-dependent):
   - Long-term drift corrections proportional to Julian centuries from J2000
   - Higher-order T³, T⁴, T⁵ corrections for historical dates

9. **High-Order Elongation Terms** (for historical date accuracy):
   - Sixth-order terms (6D combinations): 7 terms
   - Seventh-order terms (7D combinations): 4 terms
   - Enhanced 5D terms: 7 terms
   - Enhanced 4D evection-elongation coupling: 6 terms

**Total: 120+ perturbation terms**

Expected Precision
==================

- **Modern dates (1900-2100)**: <0.01° error vs JPL DE ephemeris
- **Extended range (1000-3000 CE)**: ~0.01-0.03° error
- **Historical dates (1500-1800 CE)**: <0.15° with enhanced terms
- **Early historical dates (1000-1500 CE)**: <0.25° error
- **Ancient dates (before 1000 CE)**: 0.3-1° due to fundamental limitations
- **IAU 2000A nutation**: sub-milliarcsecond precision in nutation correction

The main sources of error are:
1. Truncation of perturbation series (omitted terms < 0.0001°)
2. Meeus polynomial accuracy degradation for distant dates
3. Missing higher-order planetary perturbation cross-terms

Coordinate Systems
==================

- **Input**: Julian Day in Terrestrial Time (TT)
- **Intermediate**: ICRS (International Celestial Reference System) equatorial
- **Output**: True ecliptic of date (includes precession and nutation)

The coordinate transformation chain:
1. JPL DE ephemeris positions (ICRS, equatorial)
2. J2000 ecliptic (via obliquity rotation)
3. Ecliptic of date (via IAU 2006 precession)
4. True ecliptic of date (via IAU 2000A nutation in longitude)

    This implements the complete perturbation series for the true lunar node
    based on the ELP2000-82B theory by Chapront-Touze & Chapront. The series
    contains 90+ terms that model gravitational perturbations from the Sun,
    Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn, as well as coupling effects between
    different perturbation mechanisms.

    Theoretical Background
    ======================

    The Moon's orbit is significantly perturbed from a simple Keplerian ellipse
    due to the gravitational influence of the Sun and planets. The ELP2000-82B
    theory models these perturbations as trigonometric series in the fundamental
    lunar arguments:

    **Fundamental Arguments:**
        - D: Mean elongation of Moon from Sun (~13.176°/day)
        - M: Mean anomaly of the Sun (~0.986°/day, annual cycle)
        - M': Mean anomaly of the Moon (~13.065°/day, anomalistic month)
        - F: Mean argument of latitude (~13.229°/day)

    Each perturbation term has the form:
        amplitude × E^n × trig_func(a₁D + a₂M + a₃M' + a₄F + planet_terms)

    where E = 1 - 0.002516T - 0.0000074T² is Earth's orbital eccentricity,
    and T is Julian centuries from J2000.0.

    Perturbation Categories
    =======================

    **1. Main Solar Perturbation Terms (9 terms, up to 1.52°)**

        The dominant perturbation is the fortnightly term -1.5233 sin(2D),
        which causes the true node to oscillate ~1.5° around the mean node
        with a period of half a synodic month (~14.77 days).

        Other main terms include:
        - sin(2D±M): Solar eccentricity coupling
        - sin(2D±M'): Evection-related terms
        - sin(2F): Inclination modulation
        - sin(2D-2F): Elongation-latitude interaction

    **2. Second-Order Solar Terms (12 terms, 0.003-0.04°)**

        Combined Sun-Moon terms:
        - sin(2D-M-M'), sin(2D-M+M'): Three-body interaction
        - sin(D+M), sin(D-M): Half-synodic coupling

        Higher harmonics:
        - sin(2D±2M'): Double Moon anomaly
        - sin(D), sin(3D), sin(4D): Elongation harmonics

    **3. Third-Order and Higher Terms (10 terms, 0.001-0.006°)**

        Fine corrections for:
        - sin(M±M'): Direct Sun-Moon coupling
        - sin(2D-2M): E² eccentricity term
        - sin(2D±3M'), sin(3M'): Higher Moon anomaly harmonics

    **4. F-Related (Inclination) Terms (9 terms, 0.001-0.01°)**

        The Moon's orbital inclination (~5.145°) to the ecliptic creates:
        - sin(2F±2D): Elongation-latitude resonance
        - sin(2F±D): Half-synodic latitude coupling
        - sin(2F±M): Solar-latitude interaction
        - sin(4F): Fourth harmonic of latitude

    **5. Planetary Perturbation Terms (32 terms, 0.001-0.005°)**

        Venus (9 terms): Closest and most perturbing planet
        - sin(L♀-L☽), sin(L♀-2D), sin(2L♀-2D)
        - Combined with M' and M

        Mars (9 terms): Similar pattern to Venus
        - sin(L♂-2D), sin(L♂), sin(L♂±M')

        Jupiter (7 terms): Largest mass perturbation
        - sin(L♃), sin(L♃-2D), sin(2L♃-2D)

        Saturn (7 terms): Weakest planetary perturbation
        - sin(L♄), sin(L♄-2D), sin(2L♄-2D)

    **6. Long-Period Terms**

        Evection (6 terms, up to 0.047°, period ~31.8 days):
            The evection is a major perturbation caused by the Sun's gravitational
            modulation of the Moon's orbital eccentricity. It affects the node
            through eccentricity-inclination coupling.
            - Primary: 0.0467 sin(2D-M')
            - Coupling: sin(2D-M'±M'), sin(2D-M'±2M')

        Variation (10 terms, up to 0.052°, period ~14.77 days):
            The variation arises from the transverse component of solar gravity
            at quadrature. It modulates the node through velocity perturbations.
            - Primary: 0.0523 sin(2D+F), -0.0478 sin(2D-F)
            - Double: sin(4D), sin(4D±F)

        Annual Equation (6 terms, up to 0.186°, period ~365 days):
            Earth's orbital eccentricity causes the Earth-Sun distance to vary
            by ±3.3%, modulating the solar perturbation strength annually.
            - Primary: -0.186 E sin(M) (second-largest individual term)
            - Coupling: E sin(M±M'), E sin(M±2F)
            - Second harmonic: E² sin(2M)

        Parallactic Inequality (3 terms, up to 0.035°, period ~29.5 days):
            Caused by the Sun's finite distance - the solar perturbation differs
            when the Moon is on the sunward vs. anti-sunward side of Earth.
            - Primary: 0.035 sin(D)
            - Secondary: sin(2D-M'+2F), sin(2D+M'-2F)

    **7. Second-Order Coupling Terms (8 terms, 0.0001-0.003°)**

        Products of first-order perturbations create sum and difference
        frequency terms:

        Evection × Variation:
            sin(A)×sin(B) → ½[cos(A-B) - cos(A+B)]
            Creates: cos(M'), cos(4D-M')

        Evection × Annual Equation:
            Creates: cos(2D-M'±M)

        Self-Coupling:
            sin²(arg) → ½[1 - cos(2×arg)]
            Creates: cos(4D-2M'), cos(4D), cos(2F), cos(2M)

    **8. Secular Terms (3 terms, T-dependent)**

        Long-term drift corrections proportional to Julian centuries:
        - T sin(2D), T sin(M'), T sin(2F)
        - Account for secular changes in orbital elements

    Total Term Count

    **Total: 90+ terms**

    Args:
        jd_tt: Julian Day in Terrestrial Time (TT).
               TT is the uniform time scale used for ephemeris calculations.

    Returns:
        float: Total perturbation correction in degrees to be added to the
               mean node position. Typically ranges from -2° to +2°.

    Precision
    =========

    - With complete ELP2000-82B series: <0.01 degrees vs JPL DE ephemeris
    - Second-order terms contribute ~0.001-0.003 degrees individually
    - Secular terms ensure accuracy for dates far from J2000.0
    - Truncated terms (amplitude < 0.0001 degrees) contribute ~0.0005 degrees total error

    The main precision limitations are:
    1. Series truncation (omitted terms < 0.0001°)
    2. Polynomial argument accuracy degradation for distant dates
    3. Missing higher-order planetary cross-terms

    Implementation Notes
    ====================

    - All fundamental arguments are computed from high-precision polynomials
    - The Earth eccentricity factor E is applied to terms involving M
    - E² is used for second-order solar eccentricity corrections
    - Planetary longitudes use simplified Meeus formulas (adequate for ~0.001° precision)

    # VARIATION EFFECT ON NODE (Long-period term, period ~14.77 days)
    # ========================================================================
    # The Variation is a major lunar inequality discovered by Tycho Brahe,
    # caused by the difference in solar gravitational force between the
    # Moon's position at quadrature versus conjunction/opposition.
    #
    # Physical mechanism: At quadrature (first/last quarter), the Moon is
    # approximately at right angles to the Sun-Earth line. The transverse
    # component of the Sun's tidal force is maximum here, causing the Moon
    # to speed up (before quadrature) or slow down (after quadrature).
    # At conjunction/opposition (new/full Moon), the radial component
    # dominates, with different effects on the orbit.
    #
    # The Variation has:
    # - Period: ~14.77 days (half the synodic month, 29.53/2 days)
    # - Amplitude: ~0.658° in longitude
    # - Argument: 2D (twice the mean elongation)
    #
    # The main 2D term (-1.5233 sin(2D)) at line 247 captures the dominant
    # fortnightly oscillation of the node. The terms below capture the
    # Variation's secondary effects through its coupling with other
    # perturbations and its influence on the orbital plane orientation.
    #
    # The Variation affects the node through:
    # 1. Direct modulation of the Moon's radial velocity, which affects
    #    the instantaneous orbital plane orientation
    # 2. Coupling with the lunar inclination (F) and anomaly (M')
    # 3. Interaction with the eccentricity variation (evection coupling)

    # ANNUAL EQUATION EFFECT ON NODE (Long-period term, period ~365.26 days)
    # ========================================================================
    # The Annual Equation is a major lunar perturbation caused by the varying
    # Earth-Sun distance due to Earth's orbital eccentricity (e ≈ 0.0167).
    #
    # Physical mechanism: When Earth is at perihelion (early January), it is
    # ~3.3% closer to the Sun than at aphelion (early July). The increased
    # solar gravitational influence at perihelion accelerates the Moon's
    # orbital motion, while at aphelion the Moon moves slightly slower.
    # This creates a periodic variation in lunar longitude.
    #
    # The Annual Equation has:
    # - Period: ~365.2596 days (one anomalistic year)
    # - Amplitude: ~0.186° (11.2 arcminutes) in lunar longitude
    # - Argument: M (Sun's mean anomaly)
    # - Cause: Earth's orbital eccentricity varying Earth-Sun distance
    #
    # The Annual Equation affects the node through:
    # 1. Direct modulation of the Moon's angular velocity, which affects
    #    the instantaneous orbital plane orientation
    # 2. Coupling with the lunar inclination (F) and anomaly (M')
    # 3. Interaction with the eccentricity through the E factor

    # PARALLACTIC EQUATION (Parallactic Inequality)
    # ========================================================================
    # The parallactic equation is caused by the Sun being at a finite distance
    # rather than infinitely far away. The Sun's gravitational perturbation on
    # the Moon varies depending on whether the Moon is on the sunward or
    # anti-sunward side of Earth.
    #
    # Physical mechanism: When the Moon is between Earth and Sun (new moon,
    # D ~ 0), it is closer to the Sun and experiences stronger solar gravity.
    # When the Moon is on the far side of Earth (full moon, D ~ 180°), it is
    # farther from the Sun and experiences weaker solar gravity.
    #
    # The parallactic equation has:
    # - Period: ~29.53 days (synodic month)
    # - Amplitude: ~0.035 degrees (approximately 2 arcminutes)
    # - Argument: D (mean elongation of Moon from Sun)
    #
    # The amplitude depends on the solar parallax (ratio of Earth's radius
    # to Earth-Sun distance), approximately 8.794 arcseconds, scaled by
    # the lunar distance and orbital mechanics factors.

def _calc_elp2000_apogee_perturbations(jd_tt: float) -> float:
    """
    Calculate ELP2000-82B analytical perturbation corrections for the lunar apsidal line.

    This implements a comprehensive analytical perturbation series for the interpolated
    lunar apogee, based on the ELP2000-82B lunar theory by Chapront-Touze & Chapront.

    Theoretical Background
    ======================

    The Moon's apsidal line (connecting perigee to apogee) precesses prograde
    with a period of ~8.85 years. This mean motion is modulated by periodic
    perturbations with amplitudes up to several degrees, caused by:

    1. Solar perturbations (dominant, especially evection-related terms)
    2. Coupling between elongation and anomaly arguments
    3. Inclination effects (latitude argument F)
    4. Higher-order interaction terms

    The interpolated apogee represents the apsidal longitude smoothed to remove
    spurious short-period oscillations from osculating element calculations,
    revealing the "natural" apsidal position.

    **Fundamental Arguments (Delaunay variables):**
        - D: Mean elongation of Moon from Sun (~13.176 degrees/day)
        - M: Mean anomaly of the Sun (~0.986 degrees/day, annual cycle)
        - M': Mean anomaly of the Moon (~13.065 degrees/day, anomalistic month)
        - F: Mean argument of latitude (~13.229 degrees/day)

    Algorithm
    =========

    The perturbation series uses:

def _calc_elp2000_perigee_perturbations(jd_tt: float) -> float:
    """
    Calculate ELP2000-82B perturbation corrections for the lunar perigee.

    The perigee oscillations are significantly larger than apogee oscillations
    (~25 degrees vs ~5 degrees from mean position) due to the asymmetric nature
    of solar perturbations on the lunar orbit.

    This function implements a 61-term perturbation series calibrated against
    JPL DE441 ephemeris using passage-interpolated harmonic fitting (v2.2).

    **Calibration Method (v2.2):**

    1. Find all perigee passages (Earth-Moon distance minima) over 1000 years
       using JPL DE441. At each passage, the Moon's longitude IS the perigee
       longitude (unambiguous ground truth).
    2. Cubic spline interpolation between passages creates a smooth, continuous
       perigee longitude curve sampled daily.
    3. Harmonic series coefficients are fit via least-squares on 365K samples
       spanning [1500, 2500] CE.

    **Key Physical Insight:**

    The dominant perturbation of the perigee comes from the evection term
    (2D - 2M'), which has the OPPOSITE sign compared to apogee. While the apogee
    has a coefficient of +4.69 degrees for this term, the perigee has -22.21
    degrees. This asymmetry is because solar perturbations affect the perigee
    much more strongly than the apogee.

    Note that apogee and perigee can deviate from being exactly 180 degrees
    apart by up to 28 degrees depending on Sun-Moon geometry.

    Algorithm
    =========

    The perturbation series includes:
    1. Primary evection harmonics sin(kD - kM') for k=1..16
    2. Evection phase corrections cos(kD - kM')
    3. Solar anomaly coupling terms (E*sin, E²*sin variants)
    4. Lunar anomaly harmonics (sin(kM'))
    5. Latitude coupling terms (F-dependent)
    6. Cross-coupling terms (D, M, M', F combinations)
    7. Higher-order evection-solar coupling
    8. Secular corrections (T*sin, T*cos terms)
    9. Polynomial mean perigee corrections (const, T, T², T³)

    Args:
        jd_tt: Julian Day in Terrestrial Time (TT).

    Returns:
        float: Total perturbation correction in degrees to be added to the
               mean perigee position. Typically ranges from -25 to +25 degrees.

    Precision
    =========

    The trigonometric series alone has RMS ~2 degrees near J2000 (~8 degrees
    over the full 1000-year range). Combined with the precomputed residual
    correction table (PERIGEE_PERTURBATION_CORRECTIONS), overall precision
    is < 0.1 degrees across the full DE441 range.

def calc_true_lunar_node(jd_tt: float) -> Tuple[float, float, float]:
    """
        Calculate True (osculating) Lunar Node using orbital mechanics approach.

        The True Lunar Node represents the instantaneous ascending node of the Moon's
        osculating orbit - the point where the Moon crosses the ecliptic plane from
        south to north at the given moment. Unlike the Mean Node (which moves smoothly
        at ~19.3°/year retrograde), the True Node oscillates around the mean position
        with amplitudes up to ±1.5° on timescales of days to weeks.

        Calculation Method
        ==================

        This function uses a rigorous orbital mechanics approach, computing the
        angular momentum vector directly in the true ecliptic frame of date:

        **Step 1: Obtain Moon State Vectors in Ecliptic Frame**
            - Query JPL DE ephemeris (DE421/DE440) via Skyfield
            - Get geocentric position r and velocity v in the true ecliptic
              frame of date (Skyfield's ``ecliptic_frame``)
            - This frame automatically includes IAU 2006 precession and
              IAU 2000A nutation via Skyfield's internal rotation matrices

        **Step 2: Compute Angular Momentum Vector**
            - h = r × v (cross product) in ecliptic coordinates
            - h is perpendicular to the instantaneous orbital plane
            - Since r and v are already in the ecliptic frame, no further
              coordinate transformation is needed

        **Step 3: Compute Ascending Node Longitude**
            - The ascending node direction n = k × h (where k is ecliptic pole)
            - Simplifies to: n = (-h_y, h_x, 0)
            - Longitude = atan2(h_x, -h_y), normalized to [0°, 360°)
            - Result is directly in the true ecliptic of date

        Mathematical Foundation
        =======================

        The osculating orbital plane is defined by the angular momentum vector:

            h = r × v = |r| |v| sin(θ) n̂

        where θ is the angle between r and v, and n̂ is the unit normal to the
        orbital plane. The ascending node is where the orbital plane intersects
        the ecliptic plane, moving from south to north.

        For the ascending node direction:
            n_node = k̂_ecliptic × ĥ

        The longitude of the ascending node Ω is:
            Ω = atan2(n_x, n_y) = atan2(h_x, -h_y)

        This geometric approach captures the instantaneous orbital geometry,
        including all perturbations affecting the Moon's position and velocity
        at the given moment.

        Args:
            jd_tt: Julian Day in Terrestrial Time (TT).
                   TT is the uniform time scale used for ephemeris calculations,
                   approximately TT = UTC + 32.184 seconds + leap seconds.

        Returns:
            Tuple[float, float, float]: (longitude, latitude, distance) where:
                - longitude: Ecliptic longitude of ascending node in degrees [0, 360),
                            referenced to true ecliptic of date (includes nutation)
                - latitude: Always 0.0 (the node lies on the ecliptic by definition)
                - distance: Angular momentum magnitude scaled by 1000 (proxy for
                           orbital characteristics, not physical distance)

    Precision and Accuracy
    ======================

    **Compared to JPL DE ephemeris geometric method (1000 random dates, 1950-2050):**
        - Mean error: ~8.9 arcsec (~0.0025 degrees)
        - RMS error: ~11.8 arcsec (~0.0033 degrees)
        - Maximum error: ~52 arcsec (~0.014 degrees)
        - 100% of dates within 60 arcsec

    **Across the full DE440 range (1550-2650):**
        - Typical error: 2-13 arcsec
        - Maximum observed: ~23 arcsec

    **Temporal Behavior:**
        - The true node oscillates +/-1.5 degrees around the mean node
        - Primary oscillation period: ~27.2 days (draconic month)
        - Secondary oscillations: fortnightly (~14.8 days), monthly (~29.5 days)
        - Long-term motion: retrograde ~19.3 degrees/year (18.6 year period)

        Physical Interpretation
        =======================

        The True Node represents the actual intersection of the Moon's instantaneous
        orbit with the ecliptic. Key points:

        - **Eclipses**: Solar and lunar eclipses occur when the Sun is near a node
          during New/Full Moon. The True Node gives the instantaneous position.

        - **Oscillation**: The ±1.5° oscillation is primarily caused by:
          1. The Moon's orbital eccentricity (e ≈ 0.0549)
          2. Solar gravitational perturbations (evection, variation)
          3. The tilt of the Moon's orbit (~5.145° to ecliptic)

        - **Astrological Use**: Many systems prefer the True Node for its
          astronomical accuracy; others use the Mean Node for smoother motion.

        Note:
            The true node can move rapidly (several arcminutes per hour) and
            occasionally appears to reverse direction briefly due to the
            complex perturbation interplay. This is physically correct behavior,
            not a calculation artifact.

def calc_interpolated_apogee(jd_tt: float) -> Tuple[float, float, float]:
    """
    Calculate the Interpolated (Natural) Lunar Apogee.

    The interpolated apogee is a smoothed version of the osculating apogee that
    removes the spurious short-period oscillations caused by the instantaneous
    nature of osculating orbital elements.

    Physical Background
    ===================

    The osculating apogee (True Lilith) is calculated from instantaneous orbital
    elements that change rapidly due to solar perturbations. These rapid changes
    are artifacts of the instantaneous orbital element model, not real physical
    motion of the apsidal line.

    The interpolated apogee removes these spurious oscillations to reveal the
    "natural" apogee position - representing the true apsidal line orientation.

    Key Characteristics of the Natural Apogee
    ==========================================

    1. **Apogee oscillates ~5 degrees from mean position** (vs. perigee which oscillates ~25 degrees)
    2. **Apogee and perigee are not exactly opposite** - they are only roughly
       opposite when the Sun is in conjunction with one of them or at 90 degrees angle
    3. **The curves should be continuous** - both position and velocity

    Algorithm
    =========

    This implementation uses an analytical approach based on ELP2000-82B lunar theory:

    1. **Mean Apogee Position:** Calculate the mean lunar apogee (Mean Lilith)
       using polynomial formula for the mean argument of perigee + 180 degrees.

    2. **Perturbation Series:** Add ~50 periodic perturbation terms
       derived from ELP2000-82B theory, capturing:
       - Primary evection harmonics (kD - kM') up to k=10
       - Solar anomaly coupling (M-dependent terms)
       - Latitude coupling (F-dependent terms)
       - Cross-coupling terms for D, M, M', F interactions

    3. **Result:** mean_apogee + perturbations = interpolated apogee longitude

    Expected Precision
    ==================

    - Maximum error: <0.5 degrees
    - Mean error: <0.2 degrees
    - Suitable for astrological applications requiring Lilith calculations
    - Smooth, continuous curve without the artifacts of osculating elements

    Args:
        jd_tt: Julian Day in Terrestrial Time (TT).

    Returns:
        Tuple[float, float, float]: (longitude, latitude, distance) where:
            - longitude: Ecliptic longitude of interpolated apogee in degrees [0, 360)

def calc_interpolated_perigee(jd_tt: float) -> Tuple[float, float, float]:
    """
    Calculate the Interpolated (Natural) Lunar Perigee.

    The interpolated perigee is a smoothed version of the osculating perigee that
    removes the spurious short-period oscillations caused by the instantaneous
    nature of osculating orbital elements.

    Physical Background
    ===================

    The osculating perigee is calculated from instantaneous orbital elements that
    change rapidly due to solar perturbations. These rapid changes are artifacts
    of the instantaneous orbital element model, not real physical motion of the
    apsidal line.

    The interpolated perigee removes these spurious oscillations to reveal the
    "natural" perigee position - representing the true apsidal line orientation.

    Key Characteristics of the Natural Perigee
    ==========================================

    1. **Perigee oscillates ~25 degrees from mean position** (vs. apogee which oscillates ~5 degrees)
    2. **Apogee and perigee are not exactly opposite** - they are only roughly
       opposite when the Sun is in conjunction with one of them or at 90 degrees angle
    3. **The curves should be continuous** - both position and velocity

    Algorithm
    =========

    This implementation uses an analytical approach based on ELP2000-82B lunar
    theory. The perigee is calculated as the mean apogee plus 180 degrees plus
    additional perturbation corrections that account for the asymmetry between
    apogee and perigee oscillations.

    The perturbation series includes evection harmonics up to k=18, solar anomaly
    coupling terms, latitude coupling terms, and combined higher-order terms.

    Note: Apogee and perigee are NOT exactly 180 degrees apart - they can deviate
    by up to 28 degrees depending on Sun-Moon geometry. This implementation
    captures this physical reality through additional perturbation terms.

    Expected Precision
    ==================

    - Precision: <0.5 degrees across the ephemeris range
    - Smooth, continuous curve

    Suitable for astrological applications, supermoon timing, and tidal predictions.
