STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Select a planet and slew to it
2. Solver module / Capture and Solve / Slew to Target
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
The planet is not centred although the astrometry has been successful 

EXPECTED RESULT
TEST: repeat the process on a star near the planet : successful

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Comment 1 Jean-Claude 2021-08-21 06:24:42 UTC
I just solved this issue by replacing the 150 files of type .vsop and .orbit related to the planets.
The creation date of the corrupted files is 18 July 2017.
The creation date of the correct files is 08 July 2021.
In attachment is a compressed folder containing a corrupted and a correct file
