Take a look on page 153... (and all odd pages until 253) right down ! Lat = 180? - (Zd + d) Zd= zenithal distance, 90? - alt. d = d?clination of the moon at time of lower transit. -- ___________________________________________________________ Sign-up for Ads Free at Mail.com http://promo.mail.com/adsfreejump.htm
