I see the reason for the new definition: "The new expression for Greenwich Sidereal Time, GST, has to be in agreement at the microarcsecond level, for one century." That implies the old equation did not do that but it does not look like it's causing my problem. Related to earth rotation, a microarcsecond is 15 times smaller than a microsecond. I have a 57 seconds error. I still have an error somewhere unrelated to using the old equation. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to http://lists.febo.com/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts_lists.febo.com and follow the instructions there.
