Gaia EDR3 SIMBAD coordinate for SIMBAD

Andy Pollock hace 3 años • actualizado por ESASky Team hace 3 años • 3

One of ESASky's many excellent features is the dialogue box shown for an object in a Gaia EDR3 catalogue overlay on some other sky which generates, for example, a SIMBAD query. The query generated e.g.

http://simbad.u-strasbg.fr/simbad/sim-coo?&Coord=84.669d-69.099d&CooFrame=FK5&Radius=2&Radius.unit=arcmin

specifies coordinates to 3 significant figures. This is not enough to have the correct star at the top of the resultant list in a crowded field. Another couple of figures would probably do the trick.

Hi Andy,

Indeed, that is an oversight from our side. I'll try to squeeze in some more digits for next week's release.

Thanks for notifying us about issues like this!

Cheers,

Henrik Norman on behalf of the ESASky team

"Gaia EDR3 coordinates for SIMBAD"should have been the title.
