Magnetic declination - Wikipedia
Magnetic declination (also called magnetic variation) is the angle between magnetic north and true north at a particular location on the Earth's surface. The angle can change over time due to polar wandering . Magnetic north is the direction that the north end of a magnetized compass needle points, which corresponds to the direction of the ...

Problem with radian and degrees resulting in error Hey all I'm trying to calculate the declination of a star using the following formula. The problem is I keep getting the wrong answer. I believe radians and degrees m...
I have a copy of _Practical Astronomy With Your Calculator, Second Edition_ by Duffett-Smith, and I see an example on page 42 which has numbers close to your example, but a little off. My book has a = 19.333 889 degrees and A = 283.271 667 degrees instead of your values; phi is still 52 degrees. The...

I know this is old, but here is the answer: < A = (RA_hours * 15) + (RA_minutes * 0.25) + (RA_seconds * 0.004166) B = ( ABS(Dec_degrees) + (Dec_minutes / 60) + (Dec_seconds / 3600)) * SIGN(Dec_Degrees) C = distance in light years or parsecs **Cartesian:** X = (C * cos(B)) * cos(A) Y = (C * cos(B)) *...

Together with declination and distance (from the planet's centre of mass), it determines the location of any celestial object. By contrast, the declination of an object viewed on the celestial sphere is the angle of that object to/from the celestial equator (thus ranging from + wikipedia.org
