seconds set to zero, and the optional argument for calendar type is not used. Julian calander assumed.
B10
explicitly uses Gregorian flag, 0 would give Julian date
C14
Note use of 'absolute references' on the days argument ($B$9). You can copy the formulas across and just change the 'index' argument then.
A16
This row gives the planet number, which is then used as a cell reference in the =planet() function
