For one, it may be a difficult task to fill...

Shouldn't probably be addressing this issue since I'm a relative newcomer to the application (have used it in the past but only recently returned to it). But here it goes, for what's it worth... Justifying a wrong with another wrong won't make it suddenly right, so I can understand troofi POV. On th...

Well, I couldn't possibly come with a solution since I'm an hobbyist observer, not an investigator. And not mathematically oriented at that :) Will hope however that the observations starting next year on the upcoming eclipses help at least better describe Epsilon and Zeta systems. Thanks for provid...

Thanks Fridger, I can certainly do that. Will investigate further and renew this thread when I have all the necessary data along with the sources. EDIT: rereading your post I seem to notice you mean to say that there isn't really any current detailed information on these systems, hence them not bein...

Auriga is one fascinating constellation for me since I'm particularly drawn toward binary systems. But was terribly disappointed with Celestia interpretation of the stars in this ...
