Explanation of (some) Column Data AbbreviationsDateMonth abbreviatedDay of the Month Number Day of the Week Name abbreviated SunAll values are for 0h GMT aka UT1.Declination: in degrees minutes and seconds Note: negative values are south declination. GHA: Greenwich Hour Angle in degrees minutes and seconds. Eq o Time: EOT: Equation of Time in minutes and seconds. Semi-DI: SD: Semi Diameter of the Sun in minutes and seconds. PolarisAll values are for 0h GMT aka UT1.Declination: in degrees minutes and seconds. Some users may use polar distance which is the angular complement of declination p - 90degrees minus declination. GHA: Greenwich Hour Angle in degrees minutes and seconds. Upper: TUC: Time of upper
culmination or upper meridian passage. This is redundant in the sense
that it is derived from and used in the same way as the GHA already tabulated.
It is provided for the benefit of a few users who are familiar with it's
use in preference to GHA. Note: this is the time at Greenwich,
and as such must be corrected to the longitude of the observer as well
as for the time zone of the observer.
