A note on the relations between true and eccentric anomalies in the two-body problem.Two remarkably simple formulas are proposed for relating the eccentric and true anomalies in the two-body problem at no numerical trouble, no matter what the values of the angles are. The problem of the maximum difference between the two angles is also considered.
