Hi Geoff in New Zealand. You said the Sun would be at 54° E and 23.44° N at the time of the JUNE solstice . Ha ha. That's me ttrying to be up/down neutral by calling it *JUNE*. You have the latitude to 0.01° precsion. but the longitude to the nearest degree only. What would be the longitude of that spot to the same precision as the latitude? Am I missing something: it's not EXACTLY 54.00 is it?
Thanks!!
Josh
