Enjoyment of Guide ?
Masaki Kouda Apr 6, 2000
Hello Claes, Ralph, and more.
As Bill wrote, Big Black Hole of GSC is one of lost area by 'Ghost Image'.
We (Japanese Guide ML member) searched other bright star's ghost.
We found many 1st-mag stars have ghost and lost star area.
I checked 2nd-mag star also. They have faint ghost, but no lose star area.
I think this is new enjoyment of Guide.
At present most of Star-Chart software use GSC. And most of
amature astronomer belives they (softwares) show Correct Chart.
But as I report, and as many astronomer know, GSC has many bugs.
We can use Guide to show these bugs to understand of GSC.
Guide is very good software for education also.
This is my meaning about 'enjoyment'.
