How to get moons around a planet to be at maximum elongation
Asked by
Anni
I need to take a measurement of Jupiter and its moons when they are at maximum separation so that I can find out what their semi major axis is. I know how to get an angle, but I'm not sure how to get the moons to where I need them to be, or does that even matter? can I get the same result with our the moons being at maximum separation?
