Dear Paul,
Thank you very much for your very interesting solution. I printed it, as I earlier did for the one sent by Frank, and I am keeping it in my archives folder altogether with the solution I derived through the use of Frank's On-Line Computer.
******* ******* ******* ******* ******* ******* *******
Interesting to see our various results :
Further to my initial post ( http://www.fer3.com/arc/m2.aspx?i=115625 ) , I published in ( http://www.fer3.com/arc/m2.aspx?i=115633 ) my Actual position which was :
Steady Observer N4642.9W00223.7
*******
Frank's results (http://www.fer3.com/arc/m2.aspx?i=115630) show :
Lunar Distance UT = 18h07m30s , N4642.4W00226.0
*******
With Frank's On Line Lunar Computer (http://www.fer3.com/arc/m2.aspx?i=115633) I derived the following position :
Lunar Distance UT = 18h07m27.0s , N4643.1W00226.2
*******
You just published (http://www.fer3.com/arc/m2.aspx?i=115660) your own results as :
Lunar Distance UT = 18h07m38s , N4643.04W00229.1
*******
I had earlier found (bottom lines of document "115633.one-solution-to-the-jupiter-.pdf" published as Attached File in http://www.fer3.com/arc/m2.aspx?i=115633)
Lunar Distance UT = 18h07m33.8s , N4643.2W00228.1
Last note : For this solution, I performed my own computations with TT-UT=67.2s
*******
Thank you again for your Kind Attention and Warmest Congratulations for your very interesting reply and solution.
Best Friendly Regards
Kermit
