Invisible star

[Randall Clague]

Star WDS 14579 -1853 is invisible in Stellarium 0.12.5. It is visible in Stellarium 0.11.4. Star data at http://vizier.u-strasbg.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-S?WDS%20J14579-1853AB

This caused me no end of grief, using 0.12.5 today trying to reduce observations I made using 0.11.4 in 2013.

Thanks,

Can we close this report?

[Randall Clague (rclague)]

Not yet, please.

Is there a bug report about inaccurate asteroid positions in 0.13.3? 0.13.3 shows 405 Thia half a degree from where I observed it this evening. Because of the asteroid position bug in 0.13.3, I'll have to keep using 0.12.5, with its invisible stars.

My guess would be that asteroid position errors will be assigned a high priority. When that bug is fixed, I'll be happy to release this one.

Thanks,

Are you updated orbital elements for asteroids?

[Alexander Wolf (alexwolf)]

You should fill separate bug report for asteroids position

[Randall Clague (rclague)]

Not applicable; 0.12.5 showed its position accurately.

I don't see difference in position of 405 Thia between version 0.12.6 and 0.14.0.

[Randall Clague (rclague)]

OK, then the bug is in 0.13.3 only. Its position in 0.12.6 is accurate.

All of the reported stars are visible in 0.12.6. You may close this bug report.

Code for Solar system objects positioning is identical for version 0.13.3 and version 0.14.0. Please fill separate bug report and attach log.txt data, screenshots and photo of real sky.

[Randall Clague (rclague)]

I'm an idiot. Installed 0.12.6 on work computer, 405 Thia was in same inaccurate position laptop showed it in 0.13.3, updated 405 Thia orbital elements, problem went away. Classic dumb ass user.

Thanks,
