Calculation Star Position In The Sky, Pyephem

Post a Comment
I have difficulties with finding current coordinates (RA, DEC) for star in sky. In net I have found only this one tutorial, how to use ephem library: http://asimpleweblog.wordpres

Solution 1: 

star = ephem.FixedBody(ra=123.123, dec=45.45)

in my case fixedbody creation does not work, should be

star = ephem.FixedBody()
star._ra = ephem.hours('10:10:10')
star._dec = ephem.degrees('10:10:10')
