[vsnet-chat 2652] Re: NSV4189, apologies

[aah@nofs.navy.mil]

Ah, the answer arises out of the muddle.
  The star in question in my image is at
    129.51798500 -14.63442800 10.961  0.990
or
     08:38:04.32  -14:38:03.9  J2000
My centering was based on vsnet-chat 2567, where coordinates of
08:38:04  -14:38.3 (1950)
were given.  I, in my confused mental state, did not
notice the different equinox.  No wonder!  As luck would
have it, a 10th magnitude reddish star lies at the J2000
'equivalent' coordinates.
  So, bottom line -- ignore the nsv4189 .dat file I posted,
and I'll get new data on the next clear night.
