Thanks again, yes I changed the ini file to maptex instead of sphericalmatex. I will share the landscape as soon as I've fixed a few minor points in the stitching. Kind regards Geoff

I have downloaded Stellarium 0.15.0 and the telescope plug-in configure will not work. On an older version of Stellarium, I was able to get this to work. I am running Windows 10 and downloaded the 64-bit version of Stellarium 0.15.0. Other plug-ins are working, just not telescope control. pls go fok yourself you motherfoker idiot cow eating shiit

Thanks! I see in the log: Error converting DSO data! Cannot open file ".\nebulae\default\catalog.pack" This is strange, but it may depend by user' permissions. Do you see the same error when catalog.pack is created by hands?

No need create catalog.pack file by hands - it should be created by Stellarium. Please share the log.txt file from Stellarium (after attempt of conversion of course)

I first place the unmodified catalog.txt file in the nebulae/default folder. Then I create an empty file inside the same folder and name it catalog.pack. After that I go into my AppData directory and open the config.ini file with Notepad ++. I then create a new section [devel] and under that the parameter convert_dso_catalog = true. But when I start Stellarium the program start just fine but the catalog is not converted and also cannot be seen inide Stellarium. I also tried starting Stellarium as...

What exactly you doing - step-by-step?

Hello, I tried to change some records in the catalog.txt (which I downloaded from the official github). I have read the most recent user manual and followed the manual step by step. But when I tried to convert the file to the .dat format it didnt work. I created the catalog.pack as described in the manual. I made the entry in the config.ini and I also tried with the unchanged catalog.txt file. I even tried running Stellarium as admin. It just wont work. Could anybody please give me a hint on what...

Thanks! That what Wikipeida says. The question is, can I calculate equinox day (not exact moment) based on shadow length / curvature. I except when Sun passes the equator it also would be most straight line from shadow top. And it is almost true.
-
An equinox is the instant of time when the plane of Earth's equator passes through the geometric center of the Sun's disk (or two places on the celestial sphere at which the ecliptic intersects the celestial equator if we say about coordinates).
-
Hello! I did small research based on Steallarium 'Ephemeris' Sun position data and calculate equinox day based on how straight shadow is (I expect straight line). Basically I assume (wikipedia think differently) on equinox day shadow on ground should appear as straight line as possible. This day I call equinox day. Turns out this day 1 or 4 days different from what I see on wikipeida. Is it Steallarium bug (incorrect sun placement) or my assumption? For data at N 55° 55' 18.12" E 37° 59' 29.05" I...

Stellarium as an astronomy program has no support for gematria. It supports Julian day numbers and the conventional Gregorian calendar for the present time and (with the new Calendars plugin) several other calendars. To count days, use the Julian Day interface, it avoids different month lengths or leap years. This forum is no longer anonymous. We had too much spam.

Hi people, I am currently working on connecting dates spans and gematria connections. For example, my child is born on the 75th day of the year and was born exactly 75 weeks 0 days from the Great American eclipse (21 August 2017 ) I would like to be able to convert date durations of planets to see what other organic connections I can make.

Thank you for your reply Georg. Showing the marks is good enough so far, but being able to show labels would of course be better. I should study this more.
-
Not sure about labels. You can also place a little icon as SkyImage. But I must read the docs like you.
-
Georg, is it possible to use this command MarkerMgr.markerEquatorial("5h10m31s", "25d30m30s", true, true, "cross", "#ffff66", 6, false, 0); and get a label for the marker?
-
Thank you Alexander. I probably should have searched better before starting this. It seems to be well documented how to use scripts.
-
See https://stellarium.org/doc/0.20/classCustomObjectMgr.html or https://stellarium.org/doc/0.20/classMarkerMgr.html
-
Hi, Ist it possible to place a marker at a very specific spot (coordinates given) in the sky? If I want to add the Wow! Signal for example. I guess it could be done through scripting, but I don't know which lines to use.

Hi thanks for the response. Not sure if I have an answer to this. When I took out the landscape then it seems to be ok. To answer your question Northern Hemisphere UTC time

We have ideas to recreate just this: desaturated DSO views. The Milky Way can already be desaturated.

I love the high-res detail in the telescope view for nebulae/galaxies/clusters... but... is there a way we can toggle between using the stacked exposure camera view to a true human eye view? When my audiences see this, their expectations are falsely inflated by showing colorful detail when most of them will just see what we all "really" know is there. Anyway, I believe having both overlays would be a useful feature to keep expectations level. Thanks!
-
Are you in the Southern hemisphere on a location with daylight saving time? How should we know? If you set location and timezone (F6 panel), the simulation should be accurate.
-
I would say the stellarium view is about 30 minutes advanced of what I actually see if that is of any help....

Hi, I have a question; I am very new to stellarium but I do think it is awesome. I have an issue though that I am looking out of my window at the setting sun and it is a couple of degrees or so above my actual horizon. When I check Stellarium the sun has pretty much set behind the horizon. Can anyone explain this. I have put in my GPS coordinates and altitude and the time seems to be ok. Appreciate any help here.... Hansorian

Thanks. helpful suggestion. It is actually the green vegetation, not necessarily flowering in a place where rain water accumulates in a shallow large pool and then dries up for the vegetation to grow. Kunitzsch used "die weide" and Schjellerup used "le jardin".
-
Maybe you should give translators this hint: TRANSLATORS: Rawdah: a short time of vegetation in the desert after rainfall. Some other languages do have a particular word for this. German: Wüstenblüte. In English I see "spring flowers" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Namaqua_National_Park Maybe "The desert spring flowers and the goats" ? (If "spring" is the season. Or just "desert flowers")

Thanks! The typo is fixed

for lyra on a turtle shell, see this one in a Greek museum: http://kotsanas.com/photo/2102005-01.jpg Museum link: http://kotsanas.com/gb/exh.php?exhibit=2102005 For "natural gardin", my mistake. It is "garden". I couldn't find a suitable translation of the Arabic name "Rawdah". Some has translated it as "pasture" and some has translated it as "garden", but actually it is the land becomes green with vegetation for a temporary period after rain in the desert.

I think I have seen exactly such discussion (Arduino too limited for on-board sidereal time computation) in some other forum (or even here...). There must be tens of Arduino guiding projects discussed online.

primo mosto posted a comment on discussion Feedback
@gzotti @Hans Thanks so much for the quick replies. In truth, the problem arose due to the limit in calculations with doubles (and floats) of the Mega2560 card. Running the sketch (naturally adapted) on PC with CodeBlocks, the sidereal time is accurate and reliable. But with the same code loaded on the Mega, I have an unacceptable delay of about two minutes. I will certainly study the alternative illustrated by Hans, although I would have preferred to have Arduino manage everything. Alternatively...

Hans Lambermont posted a comment on discussion Feedback
Yes afaik it's only goto and sync that Stellarium can do. What primo mosto can do as an alternative is set up an INDI server with a LX200 device driver to talk to the mount. That driver will support the rest of the LX200 protocol. Stellarium can talk to the INDI server to control the mount (with only slew and sync). And anything else that a client needs to tell the device driver can be done simultaneously from another client that talks INDI, like setting lunar or solar speed etc. -- Hans
-
The User Guide, section 15.2.1: Abilities and limitations This plug-in allows Stellarium to send ’slew’ (’go to’) commands to the device and to receive its current position. There are some scopes which additionally support ’sync’ commands to be received in order to update the internal pointing model of the mount. Some scopes also have the ability to abort a previous slew command. However, users should always be aware of the possibility for mount collisions and similar situations. You should always...
-
Ah! Thank you very much for explanation!
-
Alexander, there is the Greek story of the Lyra made from a turtle. See also our existing "arabic" skyculture. In terms of images taken from the Sufi manuscript, this is OK.
-
Hi everyone! I have implemented an arduino code to control the motorization of a telescope, through the LX200 protocol. Among the specifications of this protocol I read that the transmission of the sidereal time is also provided, in these terms: ": GS # Get the Sidereal Time. Returns: HH: MM: SS #. The Sidereal Time as an ASCII Sexidecimal value in 24 hour format ". The question: Does Stellarium transmit sidereal time to the telescope with the code :GS#, or does it just send right ascension and declination?...
-
I see artwork for constellation Lyra and this is definitely not lyra :) P.S. In the string "The desert natural gardin and the goats" what is "natural gardin"?
-
"Lyra" is the same name as in the western sky culture. In my system it gets translated correctly. What kind of error is it causing?

Khalid, could you re-check the name of constellatio Lyra - probably translatable name has error.

Ah, this makes it very interesting then as a "single" skyculture with an actual focus on as-Sufi. (one particular author/book snapshot). Indeed, the current "arabic" is a Ptolemy/Sufi SC.
-
The (arabic) sky culture was authored by Kutaibaa Akraa. My contribution was a star name list in Arabic. I have some reservations on calling this sky culture "Arabic", because it is based on Ptolemaic constellations and the star names are a mix of traditional Arabic names and names based on their positions in the figures of the Greek constellation like alpha PsA called: Fomalhaut meaning mouth of the fish referring to its position on the mouth of Piscis Austrinus. The significance of the (arabic)...

Hi! Basically, you would make a private fork of Stellarium from github, add your files, and send a "pull request" to us. But... you have already made one based on as-Sufi (arabic). What have you changed? Is this a replacement, or a new one? Kind regards, Georg
-
I have completed a new sky culture based on the Book of Fixed Stars by Al-Sufi (903-986AD). It seems that I cannot create a branch in GitHub to upload the files. How can I get access or send the sky culture for review?

Yes and I launch Stellarium before APT. Patrick
-
Did you follow instructions from the APT manual that instructs you to activate and launch the RemoteControl plugin in Stellarium?
-
I use the 0.20.4 on win10 an win7 sp1. I am unable to remote my mount Losmandy Titan50 from my PC with Stellarium and APT dont recognize Stellarium (and write an error message (cf attachment_2). Now I find no more ASCOM telescope driver to setup the remote telescope plugin. Plateform ASCOM 6.5 is installed on my both PC Thank you in advance for your help. Patrick
-
The issue is recent. My laptop battery has failed, at around the same time. I don't know if this is related. The issue happens only with stellarium. I used other software like photoshop that could be system demanding but didn't face a similar isuue.
-
Strange. For reference, Stellarium has around 8% on my Core i7 notebook which is a generation older than your system.
-
Same issue when setting max fps to 30 and cpu max at 100%
-
I didn't change the default values: maximum_fps = 10000 minimum_fps = 18 I will experiment with power setting for cpu max at 100% and fps max 30
-
Did you set minimum_fps or maximum_fps too high? When it is just simulating current sky, frame rate can be limited with this. See Appendix D.1.24 in the User Guide.
-
My workaround that solved this was to set the power plan to cap the cpu at 50%. It seems that Stellarium is causing cpu heat and throttling .

@alexvwolf Thanks, I see this method appeared in 5d75d02301266b3a157f872196d3aae99ceeee69 revision. I used an older version.

Other PC seems to have no issues. It seems to be a specific problem in my system. If I find the cause I will post it here.

Yes. I'll try with another pc. I mostly work with Stellarium and Notepad ++ to construct a new sky culture. When trying to edit Asterisms lines file while looking for member stars in Stellarium, system becomes slow, typing and mouse movements. I have to shut down Stellarium to continue to work.
