celestial-coordinates
From the author
Celestial coordinate systems and sky positioning. Covers horizon (altitude-azimuth), equatorial (right ascension-declination), ecliptic, and galactic systems; epoch and precession; coordinate transformations; planisphere use; and practical sky-locating from any latitude and date. Use when locating objects, planning observations, converting catalog coordinates, or teaching the geometry of the sky.
