GREAT !!
and thank you very much again David.
For Paris I find (no limb) 02h04m12.5s and 02h47m28.9s, within less than 2 seconds of time from your Limb Corrected Values.
Since I will be most probably home on Mar. 26-27, 2010, I have computed this occultation as follows for my then expected "local elements":
N+47°04.582'
W+002°02.058'
Alt = 7 m
and I am getting :
Immersion at UT1=02h04m10.6s with Omi Leo : Z=260.4° and H=22°07'8 (unrefracted topocentric), and
Emersion at UT1=02h51m35.5s with Z=269.4° and H(unref topo)=14°04.5'
Therefore, weather permitting, I should be definitely able to watch it from here.
And as expected since our Home is almost 2 degrees south of Paris, the Occultation will last a little longer here : i.e. 47m25s here , vs. 43m18s for Paris.
Thank you again and
Best Regards
Antoine
