Summary0002545: Positions of minor Saturn Satellites are off
DescriptionGood Day,

Your program is a great tool, however I have been taking pictures of Saturn and managed to capture Janus - very faint moon, however Cartes du Ciel was incorrect on its positioning data. Please see web site for more info: https://www.cloudynights.com/topic/698447-unknown-object-orbiting-saturn/

Actual web site for correct sattelite positions:
https://pds-rings.seti.org/tools/viewer3_sat.shtml

Any chance you can modify your program to match corret data?

Best regards
Milosz Leszewicz
