[](https://github.com/cyschneck/Star-Chart-Spherical-Projection/actions/workflows/pytests.yml)
A Python package to generate circular astronomy star charts (past, present, and future) with spherical projection to correct for distortions with all IAU named stars accurate over 400,000 years with proper motion and precession of the equinoxes

* starPositionOverTime()
* predictPoleStar()
* **Add a New Star to Plot**
* newStar()
## Quickstart: Star-Chart-Spherical-Projection
Plot stars in the Southern Hemisphere for the year 2024 (without stars labels)
```python
import star_chart_spherical_projection as scsp
scsp.plotStereographicProjection(northOrSouth="South",
displayStarNamesLabels=False,
yearSince2000=24)
```
Plot a few built-in stars as well as two new user defined stars in the Northern Hemisphere for the year 1961 (2000-39) (with stars labels and in red). This uses both methods to define the proper motion for new stars: with a given proper motion and angle and with the proper motion speed in the declination and right ascension
```python
import star_chart_spherical_projection as scsp
exalibur_star = scsp.newStar(starName="Exalibur",
ra="14.04.23",
dec=64.22,
properMotionSpeed=12.3,
properMotionAngle=83,
magnitudeVisual=1.2)
karaboudjan_star = scsp.newStar(starName="Karaboudjan",
ra="3.14.15",
dec=10.13,
properMotionSpeedRA=57.6,
properMotionSpeedDec=60.1,
magnitudeVisual=0.3)
scsp.plotStereographicProjection(northOrSouth="North",
builtInStars=["Vega", "Arcturus", "Altair"],
userDefinedStars=[exalibur_star, karaboudjan_star],
displayStarNamesLabels=True,
fig_plot_color="red",
yearSince2000=-39)
```
Return the final position of a Vega (can be a single star or a list of stars) after 11,500 years when Vega is the new North Pole Star (star closest to +90°)
```python
import star_chart_spherical_projection as scsp
star_final_pos_dict = scsp.finalPositionOfStars(builtInStars=["Vega"],
yearSince2000=11500,
save_to_csv="final_star_positions.csv")
```
Returns a dictionary with a star and its declination and right ascension: `{'Vega': {'Declination': 83.6899118156341, 'RA': '05.38.21'}}`
The final position of the stars are saved in `final_star_positions.csv` with the headers ["Star Name", "Right Ascension (HH.MM.SS)", "Declination (DD.SS)"]
## Install
PyPi pip install at [pypi.org/project/star-chart-spherical-projection/](https://pypi.org/project/star-chart-spherical-projection/)
```
pip install star-chart-spherical-projection
```
## Overview
The first step to plot the celestial sphere onto a 2D plot is to map the star's right ascension as hours along the plot (matplotlib polar plot's theta value) and declination as the distance from the center of the circle (matplotlib polar plot's radius value). However, attempting to map the right ascension and declination directly will cause distortion since the angles between the stars along the declination are no longer conserved. On the left, the constellation of the Big Dipper is stretched into an unfamiliar shape due to this distortion. By accounting for the spherical transformation, the star chart can be corrected as seen on the right.
| Without Correction | With Correction |
| ------------- | ------------- |
|  |  |
The sphere is projected from the South Pole (via [Stereographic projection](https://gisgeography.com/azimuthal-projection-orthographic-stereographic-gnomonic/)):
<p align="center">

</p>
From the perspective of an observer on the Earth's surface, the stars appear to sit along the surface of the celestial sphere--an imaginary sphere of arbitrary radius with the Earth at its center. All objects in the sky will appear projected on the celestial sphere regardless of their true distance from Earth. Each star's position is given by two values. Declination is the angular distance from the celestial equator and right ascension is the distance from the position of the vernal equinox. During the course of a full 24-hour day, stars will appear to rotate across the sky as a result of the Earth's rotation, but their position is fixed. A star’s actual position does change over time as the combined result of the star’s small movement (proper motion) as well as the changing rotational axis of the Earth (precession).

</p>
Spherical projection can overcome angular distortion by converting the position of the declination to:
```
# Projected from South Pole (Northern Hemisphere)
north_hemisphere_declination = tan(45° + (original_declination / 2))
# Projected from North Pole (Southern Hemisphere)
south_hemisphere_declination = tan(45° - (original_declination / 2))
```
Where in the Northern Hemisphere, projections are formed from the South Pole:
## Add a New Star
### newStar Object
The star chart package comes with over a hundred of brightest stars as part of a built-in library. However, a new star can be easily added for plotting or calculations by creating a newStar object. The newStar object will require a few important features that plotStereographicProjection() and finalPositionOfStars() can now accept as an additional argument.
This allows for the creation of a new star in two ways:
**1. With a Proper Motion Speed and a Proper Motion Angle**
As seen in [in-the-sky.org for Pollux](https://in-the-sky.org/data/object.php?id=TYC1920-2194-1)
```
star_chart_spherical_projection.newStar(starName=None,
ra=None,
dec=None,
properMotionSpeed=None,
properMotionAngle=None,
magnitudeVisual=None)
```
* **[REQUIRED]** starName: (string) A star name to be displayed as a label
* **[REQUIRED]** ra: (string) Right Ascension of star as a string with three parts 'HH.MM.SS' (Hours, Minutes, Seconds)
* **[REQUIRED]** dec: (int/float) Declination of star (a positive or negative value)
* **[REQUIRED]** properMotionSpeed: (int/float) Proper motion speed as a single value (in mas/year)
* **[REQUIRED]** properMotionAngle: (int/float) Proper motion positive angle (between 0° and 360°)
* **[REQUIRED]** magnitudeVisual: (int/float) Absolute Visual Magnitude
**With the Proper Motion speed along the Right Ascension and Declination**
As seen in [wikipeida.og for Pollux](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pollux_(star))
```
star_chart_spherical_projection.newStar(starName=None,
ra=None,
dec=None,
properMotionSpeedRA=None,
properMotionSpeedDec=None,
magnitudeVisual=None)
```
* **[REQUIRED]** starName: (string) A star name to be displayed as a label
* **[REQUIRED]** ra: (string) Right Ascension of star as a string with three parts 'HH.MM.SS' (Hours, Minutes, Seconds)
* **[REQUIRED]** dec: (int/float) Declination of star (a positive or negative value)
* **[REQUIRED]** properMotionSpeedRA: (int/float) Speed of Proper Motion along the Right Ascension
* **[REQUIRED]** properMotionSpeedDec: (int/float) Speed of Proper Motion along the Declination
* **[REQUIRED]** magnitudeVisual: (int/float) Absolute Visual Magnitude
Important Note: RA/Dec proper motion will be converted from speed along the right ascension and declination to a proper motion speed (`properMotionSpeed`) and an angle (`properMotionAngle`) for further calculations

However, attempting to map the right ascension and declination directly will cause distortion since the angles between the stars along the declination are no longer conserved. On the left, the constellation of the Big Dipper is stretched into an unfamiliar shape due to this distortion. By accounting for the spherical transformation, the star chart can be corrected as seen on the right.\n\n| Without Correction | With Correction |\n| ------------- | ------------- |\n|  |  |\n\nThe sphere is projected from the South Pole (via [Stereographic projection](https://gisgeography.com/azimuthal-projection-orthographic-stereographic-gnomonic/)):\n <p align=\"center\">\n <img src=\"https://gisgeography.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/Stereographic-Projection-768x421.png\" />\n</p>\n\n\nFrom the perspective of an observer on the Earth's surface, the stars appear to sit along the surface of the celestial sphere--an imaginary sphere of arbitrary radius with the Earth at its center. All objects in the sky will appear projected on the celestial sphere regardless of their true distance from Earth. Each star's position is given by two values. Declination is the angular distance from the celestial equator and right ascension is the distance from the position of the vernal equinox. During the course of a full 24-hour day, stars will appear to rotate across the sky as a result of the Earth's rotation, but their position is fixed. A star\u2019s actual position does change over time as the combined result of the star\u2019s small movement (proper motion) as well as the changing rotational axis of the Earth (precession).\n \n <p align=\"center\">\n <img src=\"https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/12/Earth_within_celestial_sphere.gif\" />\n</p>\n\nSpherical projection can overcome angular distortion by converting the position of the declination to:\n```\n# Projected from South Pole (Northern Hemisphere)\nnorth_hemisphere_declination = tan(45\u00b0 + (original_declination / 2))\n\n# Projected from North Pole (Southern Hemisphere)\nsouth_hemisphere_declination = tan(45\u00b0 - (original_declination / 2))\n```\nWhere in the Northern Hemisphere, projections are formed from the South Pole: \n\n\n## Add a New Star\n\n### newStar Object\n\nThe star chart package comes with over a hundred of brightest stars as part of a built-in library. However, a new star can be easily added for plotting or calculations by creating a newStar object. The newStar object will require a few important features that plotStereographicProjection() and finalPositionOfStars() can now accept as an additional argument.\n\nThis allows for the creation of a new star in two ways:\n\n**1.
