I've come here looking for the calculations because I'm writing a program myself, and couldn't help to notice that when you calculate RA and DEC in decimal format you're dividing the seconds by 60, but I think it should be 3600 instead? Small one if you ask me, shouldn't change the final ALT and AZ once corrected, but it seems like a bug nonetheless. Thanks again, this is awesome! Seb. Hey,

Can you help me? I'm having a lot of trouble. I'd be able to pay you a bit. JM Hi,
