Chapter S1, Problem 49EAP
Be sure to show all calculations clearly and state your final answers in complete sentences.
49. HA = LST - RA. a. It is 4 p.m. on the March equinox. What is the local sidereal time? b. The local sidereal time is 19:30. When will Vega cross your meridian? c. You observe a star that has an hour angle of 13 hours (13h) when the local sidereal lime is 8:15. What is the star’s right ascension? d. The Orion Nebula has declination of about -5.5° and right ascension of 5h25m. If you are at latitude 40°N and the local sidereal time is 7:00, approximately where does the Orion Nebula appear in your sky?
