DAY 8 ! Made some progress hehe (;
Okay so YESTERDAY , my goal was pretty clear , I wanted to get to a point where my python program for writing a .txt with all the datas for the celestial objects will be good. So I changed somethings because I feel like I was running towards a wall that I could simply dodge. So the big change was that instead of using a sort of celestial_objects_list.txt , I instead took the names of the objects that I wanted directly from my datas.js in order to after fill them.
In the Afternoon , with this first part accomplished , I went into trying to understand how I could convert my Ra and Dec astronomical positions into Az / Alt ones with the help of the location of the User and their precise time according to their location.
So right now I know that I could simply copy a script like that with all that I needed but I will try before correcting it with others examples online to seek understanding myself and writing it like I UNDERSTAND.
Right now I know that I need to calculate the GMST (Greenwich Mean Sidereal Time) , this time with what I understood is something that will help me deal with the rotation of earth on itself by correcting it to have something “fixed”?
