  1. Here there are maps of all Antares' occultations during this season generated in Occult software (there are 68 events during this 2023-2028 season). On each map: - white line means the event occurs during the night, - red dashed line means the event occurs during the day, - blue line means the event occurs at dusk (left from the white line) or dawn (right from the white line), - cyan loop on the right marks the area, where the event occurs during moonset, - cyan loop on the left marks the area, where the event occurs during moonrise. Also if the line is mostly white, is means there is Full Moon, if mostly red dashed, there is New Moon, if the line is half white and half red dashed it means First Quarter Moon, if red dashed is on the left from white, and Last Quarter Moon if red dashed line is on the right from white. As you can see the whole Europe has a bad luck this time and the only event, which occurred over horizon above most of our continent was a couple of days ago, October 18th, but it happened during the day. Another one event visible close to UK will occur Apr 12th 2028, visible over South-Eastern Europe and West Asia, and the last one July 4th 2028, visible from UK during moonset, and the whole from Iberian Peninsula. If someone is interested in a particular event from a particular place, I can check what Occult will show in this case.
  2. Hi guys. I registered here some time ago, but my activity is not big (let say), so welcome one more time. I have some problem with the Occult 4.2.0.3 software: since some time after starting the program there was some alert displaying, that my AsteroidElements.dat file is too old. There is some instruction how to update it, but when I tried to follow it, it occurred, that the new version of the file looks different, than the old one. In addition during installing the software from the beginning (in hope, that this will update the file automatically, unfortunately it didn't) I have moved the old version of the file to the trash and removed it permamently. So I can't for example take the new version of file (which I can download from here: https://asteroid.lowell.edu/main/astorb) and change it to the old version with gawk software or in other way. And now, when I start the program, then some error message is displaying: After clicking "Continue" it looks like it works normal: if I choose eg. to check Jupiter occultations and choose some date, then I can see the map, but if I try to save it, then another error is displaying: And I can't do anything. I have also noticed, that the interface, where I can choose an object to check occultations is empty (apart from planets): Additionally it claims also, that I have no another file: My problem is, that I have an old computer, with Windows XP, and a new Occult 4.6 is for 64-bit machines, so I can't install it on my computer. And I have a question: is there someone, who use the old version of Occult software and can share this file through some website, because it is too big to send it? Thank you for your help.
