However, whereas the Orrery is laid out in the ecliptic plane, constellations are defined in B1875 equatorial coordinates. Therefore for each adjacent pair of zodiacal constellations, we calculated the point at which the J2000 ecliptic intersects the boundary between the two constellations. ... numbers . plot . image . ...
