Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.5.1) OS: Linux Declination and Right Ascension of all celestial bodies seems to be erroneous, i've done a research about it on nasa site. Here's the difference: Calculator - Equatorial Galatic Equatorial Coordinates Galatic Coordinates RightAscension Declination Latitude Longitude Mercury KSTARS:17 38 43.27 -25 50 11.03 01 49 43.77 02 56 04.24 NASA:17 33 06.19 -25 47 24.4 1.185108 4.030590 Venus KSTARS:13 48 17.34 -10 32 12.50 324 56 09.30 49 53 25.49 NASA:13 46 30.36 -10 32 19.0 324.287440 50.038292 Mars KSTARS:17 23 28.48 -23 57 25.55 01 31 21.56 06 51 26.99 NASA: 17 19 55.08 -23 53 45.8 1.112967 7.570216 Saturn KSTARS:12 55 46.25 -3 30 10.54 305 03 11.36 59 21 03.35 NASA: 12 54 53.61 -03 24 49.9 304.621707 59.447875 Ceres (asteroid) KSTARS:00 00 00.00 00 00 00.00 96 20 13.99 -60 11 18.62 NASA:19 08 59.41 -27 52 37.9 9.316123 -15.863078 Iris(asteroid) KSTARS:00 00 00.00 00 00 00.00 96 20 13.99 -60 11 18.62 NASA: 08 48 06.14 +14 31 08.9 212.391167 32.291279 Sun KSTARS:16 10 13.68 -21 02 37.56 353 02 44.18 21 56 02.16 NASA: 16 05 45.04 -20 50 41.5 352.423707 22.836066 Uranus KSTARS:23 49 07.55 -2 00 22.39 89 34 55.96 -60 46 39.71 NASA:23 48 34.21 -02 04 01.1 89.278028 -60.762707 Reproducible: Always Expected Results: Correct results
I just checked most the planets and Ceres and all results agree with other sources. Maybe this was a bug in older version of KStars. Please reopen if you still experience this issue.
