equinox in Alexandra at 140CE
Asked by
Victor Reijs
I try to determine spring equinox (DE of date =0) at 140 CE (in this case Alexandria 31deg 12' N 29deg 55' E, but that should be not that important). I seem to get a date and time (UT) of 140/3/21 10:21 UT (using default DeltaT Espenak & Meeus (2006)). But if I checked this with SkyMap Pro 9 and SkyViewCafé I get more a time of around 14:15 UTC.
What do I do wrong? I have my computer on GMT (Ireland) and I have the Tiem zone plug-in on UTC... This four hour (2*2) diffference could be a time zone problem...
Thanks for your help.
All the best,
Victor
