MICA 2.0, the new version of the U.S. Naval Observatory's computer almanac, will be shipping at the end of this month. Willmann-Bell is giving a $5.00 discount (your price is $25) if the order is received before July 1. Time span is now 1800 - 2050, a major expansion compared to the former 1990 - 2005 span. http://www.willbell.com/almanacs/almanac_mica.htm http://aa.usno.navy.mil/software/mica/micainfo.html I reviewed the previous version almost exactly two years ago: http://www.i-DEADLINK-com/lists/navigation/0306/0017.html One of my complaints was the inaccurate ∆T table that was hardwired into MICA. Apparently you can update the table now.
