Hi Bill and everyone,
I've got a problem here using MPCORcr.dat.
Until recently, I have been able to download and use the file with
Guide, and everything was fine.
Now I have problems. I was looking at 2002 NT7 on 1st Feb 2019 at 1544
UT. Guide is telling me that it will be at mag 15.8 and really far away,
but as we all know it will be extremely close!
A colleague over here, checked his copy of Guide 8, and found it would
be around mag 5, and at a distance of around 0.0009? AU.
Can someone give me advice on this. I have checked that my viewing
location is Earth!
I tried the same with my other PC and got the same results.
Also I have downloaded the database again from the mirror site and got
the same results.
All advice would be most appreciated.
Best Regards
Alan Cahill
