    Re: Yet another modified 2102-D star finder
    From: John Forrest

    I've added two new pages to my "EasyStarFinder" blog:

    http://easystarfinder.blogspot.com/2013/01/plotting-planets-part-1.html
    http://easystarfinder.blogspot.com/2013/01/plotting-planets-part-2-and-followup.html

    This covers adding the planets for a rough sighting of Jupiter the other night, and predicting Jupiter's rise, max height and set times. As seem to have got some figures wrong the first time around, when I was in a hurry. However on followup I'm getting reasonable results compared to computed times, and definitely good enough for prediction and checking.
