Moon declination for 4 February 2011: ...///...
Peter, your own results also all confirm previous findings, which is an excellent piece of news : we all have the very same Lady Moon :-) , and Andr�s certainly too (Hello Andr�s !!!)
***************************************
Further to your last posting, Peter, I was just curious to check the IMMCCE results ( http://www.imcce.fr/fr/ephemerides/formulaire/form_ephepos.php ) which yield the following results :
Satellite 10 Lune
Theorie planetaire INPOP08
Coordonnees Apparentes (equateur vrai ; equinoxe de la date)
Centre du repere : geocentre
Coordonnees equatoriales (R.A, Dec.)
#######################################################################################
01:00:00 UTC , Moon Dec = -09� 12' 43".7674 , and
17:00:00 UTC , Moon Dec = -06� 05' 14".5374
The values ( S -9�12'43"9 / S -6�05'14"7) I quoted in NavList # 15564 (http://www.fer3.com/arc/m2.aspx?i=115564) actually were less than 0.2" away from the results hereabove.
These IMCCE / INPOP08 results also fully confirm the (quite rare indeed) error of the Air Almanac for 2011, Feb 04 th.
Dave ... you have a VERY SHARP EYE to detect extremely rare events !!!! WELL DONE !!
Kermit
