There are two features of the event, one when the bright star or planet disappears (immersion) and another when it re-appears ( emmersion). - Thurs, Jan 22 2009 12:23 pm 1 message, 1 author http://groups.google.com/group/NavList/t/1c50b6f24ba68301?hl=en ======================================================================== ====== You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "NavList" group.
