the analemma and the equation of time, john denker
shows the position of the sun in the sky at noon, local mean time. the figure-8 is an analemma. primary axes are minutes of right ascension and degrees of declination. In this system, the celestial north pole is at +90∘, and the celestial equator is at 0∘
