To put an end to the "querelle" on the Sun Declination for remote days, I wish report here the results of my program based on the Van Flandern and Pulkkinen formulation, for April 18, 1693 (Gregorian Calendar):
Time = 0h ET 12h ET
JD = 2339523.5 2339524.0
RA = 1h 46m 12s 1h 48m 03s
Decl = 10° 59' 16" 11° 09' 40"
= 10°,987778 11°,1611
R = 1.005750 1.005885
I am however happy that the help request of a dialler has had so many
contributions and suggestions,
with my best wishes
Paolo Gregorio
