HW3-Problem 3 (Jocelyn Quispe)

The inserted parameters:

  • Event Midpoint JD UT (days) =  2458186.69173
  • Period (days) = 1.327347000
Formula used to find next known transit:
T_transit (JD UT) = JD + P *n 

I used a online converter to change the JD back to Calendar date and time. The boxes highlighted in green at the night where it would be visible for us to see. So out of the 50 transits, only 19 would occur at night on campus.
