Public Sub Set (
RA As Double,
Dec As Double,
ProMoRA As Double,
ProMoDec As Double,
Parallax As Double,
RadVel As Double
)Parameters
- RA Double
- Catalog mean right ascension (hours)
- Dec Double
- Catalog mean declination (degrees)
- ProMoRA Double
- Catalog mean J2000 proper motion in right ascension (sec/century)
- ProMoDec Double
- Catalog mean J2000 proper motion in declination (arcsec/century)
- Parallax Double
- Catalog mean J2000 parallax (arcsec)
- RadVel Double
- Catalog mean J2000 radial velocity (km/sec)
Remarks
Assumes positions are FK5. If Parallax is set to zero, NOVAS-COM assumes the object
is on the "celestial sphere", which has a distance of 10 mega parsecs.
