Ascension

Ascension is my attempt at an email client. It makes use of the KDE libraries, so you will need KDE installed if you wish to use it (works with 3.2, might work with 3.1). Although the code is still in alpha, I have been using it as my main email client for over a year. If you wish to try it,...

Calculates azimuth and elevation angle in the local horizon system for a sky position given in equatorial coordinates (RA Dec J2000).Function Call: [Az El] = RADec2AzEl(350,58, '2008/02/18 13:10:00',60,15,0)Input:RA - Right ascension (J2000) of sky position in degrees (0:360)Dec - Declination...
