- Purpose of use
- Calculate azimuth at rise and set
[1] 2018/12/04 22:48 Female / Under 20 years old / High-school/ University/ Grad student / Useful /
- Purpose of use
- I like to see Venus in the morning
[2] 2018/11/26 22:34 Male / 60 years old level or over / Self-employed people / Very /
- Purpose of use
- Astronomy club
- Comment/Request
- What is the highest elevation possible of Venus?
Does the location on earth matter?
[3] 2018/07/13 03:22 Female / 60 years old level or over / A retired people / Useful /
- Purpose of use
- Planet finding, calculating forces.
- Comment/Request
- I need sun and moon beside these planets. Keep up the good work.
[4] 2017/11/16 19:47 Male / 30 years old level / An engineer / Very /
- Purpose of use
- To find azimuth and elevation of planets for a given date and time.
- Comment/Request
- Please enable calculation of planets' azimuth and elevation for a given hour, minute and second and expand the range backwards (into 1800s, 1700s, 1600s etc.) if possible. The former is a must.
[5] 2016/02/04 06:09 Male / 40 years old level / A teacher / A researcher / Useful /
- Purpose of use
- Am a night worker. Take lunch about 3amEDT.
Several nights a bright star in the east has been seen. Turns out to be Jupiter. - Comment/Request
- Interesting site. Thank You!
[6] 2014/10/08 03:29 Male / 50 years old level / An office worker / A public employee / Very /
- Purpose of use
- To find rising times of planets.
- Comment/Request
- Is there a way to get the times in Local Sidereal Time?
[7] 2013/08/10 02:07 Male / 60 years old level or over / Self-employed people / Very /
- Purpose of use
- want to improve my knowledge on astronomy
[8] 2013/02/22 23:38 - / 30 years old level / High-school/ University/ Grad student / A little /
- Purpose of use
- To compute location of planets
- Bug report
- Using the major cities routine and then the location routine (using the pre3cise location of a city, I get widely variant results. Something is radically wrong!
- from Keisan
- Time zone means time offsets from UTC. In the case of the Phoenix in Arizona, please input -7.
[9] 2011/08/31 13:22 Male / 60 years old level / Self-employed people / Not at All /
- Purpose of use
- Really versatile!
- Comment/Request
- For astronomical calculation a range of dates and step (hour, day, etc.) should be very useful!
