You know what,
I have that itchy feeling I missed something somewhere. So here is the (unfinished) setup of my reflections on the change of altitude formula.
The "trick" is in equations (4) - (12).
Did I go wrong? If so, where and why?
Or did I really stumble upon a possibility for fitting observations of the path of a heavenly object near M.P./transit without rogue computing power?
Shoot.
