ln_get_apparent_posn

public static void ln_get_apparent_posn(LnEquPosn mean_position,
                                        LnEquPosn proper_motion,
                                        double JD,
                                        LnEquPosn position)

void ln_get_apparent_posn(struct ln_equ_posn *mean_position, struct ln_equ_posn *proper_motion, double JD, struct ln_equ_posn *position) \param mean_position Mean position of object \param proper_motion Proper motion of object \param JD Julian Day \param position Pointer to store new object position Calculate the apparent equatorial position of a star from its mean equatorial position. This function takes into account the effects of proper motion, precession, nutation, annual aberration when calculating the stars apparent position. The effects of annual parallax and the gravitational deflection of light (Einstein effect) are NOT used in this calculation.
