GLOSSARY OF TERMS IN HEADING
Date - Terrestrial Dates starting with January 1st and ending December 31st of each year.
R.A. - The Geocentric Right Ascension of the center of Mercury in hours and minutes (hh:mm).
Dec - The Declination of the center of Mercury in degrees.
Dist - The distance of Earth from Mercury in Astronomical Units. NOTE: An Astronomical Unit
is 92,955,621 miles or 149,597,892 km.
Ls - Planetocentric Longitude of the Sun, measured eastward in the planet's orbital plane
from Mercury' Northern Hemisphere's vernal equinox. (Also referred to Areocentric Long).
De - Sub-Earth point (Planetocentric Declination of Earth) as seen from Earth with respect
to Mercury in degrees.
Ds - Sub-Solar point (Planetocentric Declination of Sun) as seen from the Sun with respect
to Mercury in degrees (positive to the north).
Phase - The fraction of the area of the apparent disk of Mercury that is illuminated by the Sun.
Equation: k = (1+cos i)/2, where i = phase in degrees.
Defect - Sun-Mercury-Earth position angle. Measured counterclockwise from north; 0° to 359°, to
the point on the limb of the greatest defect of illumination.
Axis - Position angle of the North Pole of Mercury with respect to the North Pole of the Earth.
Size - Apparent angular diameter in seconds of arc (twice the semidiameter).
Mag - Geocentric apparent Visual Magnitude.
CM - Planetographic longitude of the central meridian of Mercury, in degrees.
NOTE: The Central Meridian is an imaginary line passing through the planetary poles
of rotation and bisecting the planetary disk. This line is used to define what
areographic longitudes are present on the disk during an observing session.
MOTION OF THE CENTRAL MERIDIAN OF MERCURY
