The Nautical Almanac gives 00 hr and 12hr eqn. of time figures on the daily pages, and a graph of the Sun's meridian passage on page 9. What I am looking for is a chart for the Sun in 2005 similar to page 9 but with a scale that would make it useful to .1 minute of time or better for any given date. Do any of the list know if such a chart is available online? If not, a tabular listing that could be used in Excel to construct a chart without keyboarding dates and eqn. of time from the almanac? I have had no luck locating an analemma that meets my requirements. Thanks, and happy new year Bill
