I've heard that JPL has a computer site that offers ephemerides, technical files with information on the motions of the planets and moons. Where do I find that?

JPL's ephemerides and other physical parameters for solar system bodies (planets, natural satellites, asteroids and comets) are available on the Solar System Dynamics web page.

You can also visit JPL's Solar System Simulator to view planets from different times and places.
