77. Time by the Altitude of a Star.
The method of the preceding article may be applied equally well to
... an observation on a star. In this case the parallax and semidiameter corrections are zero. If the star is west of the meri- dian the computed hour angle is the star's true hour angle; if the star is east of the meridian the computed hour angle must be subtracted from 24^. The sidereal time is then found by adding the right ascension of the star to its hour angle. If mean time is desired the sidereal time thus found is to be con- verted into mean solar time by Art. 34. Since it is easy to select stars in almost any position it is desirable to eliminate errors in the measured altitudes by taking two observations, one on a star which is nearly due east, the other on one about due west.
