Declination Scale

This scale allows you to graphically compare objects by their declination coordinates.

Objects with south declination are to the left of the scale, and those with north declination are to the right.

The scale is limited to 30 degrees. Virtually all major objects fall within this range.

The scale features a red horizontal line indicating the maximum solar declination — 23°26’. It helps to quickly visually identify so-called “Out-of-Bounds” planets.

Lots can be excluded from the objects participating in the calculation. This can be done from the context menu.
