Pack What's the Season?


Created: 2011-10-05 05:59:24 | Last updated: 2011-10-05 06:05:50

This pack contains the Excel file for What's the Season?, the workflow itself, and the inputs/outputs used for testing. The inputs/outputs are included in a .zip file. What's the Season? will take a list of astronomical objects and check them against an Excel file. The Excel file currently contains Messier objects with magnitudes less than 6.0 (common names unless the common name is ambiguous or nonexistent, and then it goes by Messier number). It also contains really bright stars. If none o...

This is the Excel spreadsheet for use with the What's the Season? workflow (see list of attributions). It contains the object name, RA, Dec, magnitude, and distance. The spreadsheet was built using the following sources. Dolan (n.d.), Frommert & Kronberg (2007), and Kronberg (1998) were consulted the most, with some RA/Dec values coming from Wikipedia.     Alpha Crucis. (2011, July 28). In Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Retrieved on 26 September 2011, from http://en.wikipe...

Workflow What's the Season? (1)

Thumb
When given a list of astronomical object names, this workflow will check them against a simple Excel spreadsheet and return which season the object is best observed in. It will also compare the distances to the objects in a Google Charts bar chart. A later version of this may switch to a scatter plot, depending on whether or not this works with the Google Chart API. Running this workflow requires Python. Sys and string should be bundled in Python, but the numpy module will need to be downloa...
