Closed astrohoward closed 3 months ago

astrohoward commented 3 months ago

When using the documented Ctrl-X plate solve routine in SkyFit2 it fails. Terminal session output:

When using the key sequence Ctrl-Shift-X the plate solve works, same session immediately after Ctrl-X failure:

Astrometry.net solution:
------------------------
 RA    = 74.79 deg
 Dec   = 6.75 deg
 Azim  = 240.76 deg
 Alt   = 40.55 deg
 Rot horiz   = -0.26 deg
 Orient eq   = 0.00 deg
 Pos angle   = 44.09 deg
 Scale = 3.84 arcmin/px

This solution works somewhat requiring a bit more effort to line things up.

This has been fixed on astrometry.net end. it was caused by imgur rejecting default wget configuration used by astrometry.net.
