Sahrani – Talk

Not too sure about that position for Sahrani:

39° 57' 0" N / 40° 1' 12" W

The config for Sahrani places it at:

 longitude = -40.020000;
 latitude = -39.950001;

Which places it at about 1,067 Nautical Miles or 1,977 kilometers North-East of the Falkland islands, due East of Argentina.

Altered article accordingly.

Suma said "Negative latitude means northern hemisphere in our coordinate system, therefore you should be able to see the Polaris on Sahrani (the june/july is also the season with longest daytime there)."

It is also commented in the SaraLite config : "positive is east, positive is south". It seems odd they chose not to use the universal positive = north.

Fair enough, we use BI world coordinates then....  ;)

Changed again.
