Object Properties vs. Time
If you look at the object list in AstroPlanner, you will see a whole bunch of properties associated with those objects. Some of those properties remain constant over time (for non-solar-system objects, e.g. Magnitudes, RA/Dec coordinates, etc.), while other properties vary with the passage of time (e.g. Altitude, hour angle, parallactic angle, etc.).Â
It’s difficult to see how these latter properties change over, say, the course of an observing session. For some purposes, especially if you’re an astroimager, it’s important to know what those changes are. Enter a new feature to help with this kind of visualisation.
